 Title: Digital Transmissibility Analysis of Shock Absorber

 Introduction:
For proper design of machine or machine parts which are subjected to
vibratory Forces, it is essential to estimate their natural frequency conditions. In most
cases there is always certain amount of damping associated with the system.

Shock absorber is a device which is generally used in all automobiles. It

absorbs some amount of force, motion & transmits remaining force & motion to the
person who is sitting on vehicle. Input force & motion is given by due to uneven path
like speed breakers, ditches etc. Part of force & motion is absorbed due to spring &
damper arrangement.

In damper damping occurs for small velocities in lubricated sliding surface

dashpot with small clearances etc. The amount if damping resistance will depend
upon the relative velocities & parameters of damping system. For a particular system
the damping resistance is always proportional to the relative velocity. So shock
absorbers are used in mobile in which dashpot & spring are fitted.

 Need of Project:
 Transmissibility analysis of shock absorber at various speed or frequency with
minimum possible errors.
 Transmissibility analysis experimental setup was already in DOM lab, using
the strip chart recorder to record the amplitude of vibration.
 The aim is to make it Digital for plotting Digital graphs and transmissibility
analysis with computer program which is user friendly, much more accurate
and provide more details.

 Aim:
The aim of this project is to digitize the transmissibility analysis experimental
setup and to study the shock absorber and its shock transmissibility analysis and
plotting the transmissibility graphs.

  Objectives:
 To plot transmissibility curves.
 To plot excitation using electronic device instead of strip chart recorder.
 To make the setup flexible to attach and detach shock absorber.
 To analyse transmissibility at various speed and load with minimum errors.
 To collect the different type of IOT Equipment’s information and study on it.
 Develop the Client & Server program to establish the wireless communication
between micro-controller and computer.
 Develop the user-friendly GUI application, which collect data form sensor
wirelessly and perform the computation on it and gives the expected outcomes
in the form of graphs.
 To avoid unwanted vibrations from old setup.
