A damper or damper is a device that uses damping characteristics to slow down mechanical vibrations and consume kinetic energy. Often used in automobile suspension systems and motorcycles, some bicycles also have shock absorbers. Some skyscrapers also have dampers for shock proof, such as Taipei 101, Kaohsiung 85 building, etc.. .
It is known that friction and other impediments that attenuate free vibrations are what we call damping. And the special components that are placed on the structural system can provide resistance to motion and reduce the energy of motion, which we call dampers.
Dampers are just a component. They have different damping effects when they are used in different places or in different working environments. Damper: for damping; Snubber: for shock proof, low speed allows moving, and when the speed or acceleration exceeds the corresponding value of locking, forming rigid support.
At present, all kinds of applications include spring damper, hydraulic damper, pulse damper, rotary damper, Wind Damper, viscous damper, etc..
