The present thesis deals with the development of the MR suspension damper for space application. Some important requirements for semi-active control damper for space application are a hermetic separation of operating fluids from the rest of the launch vehicle and short response time of damping element. Those requirements meet magnetorheological damper with bellows unit, according to state of the art. Magnetic circuit of the MR damper was made from ferrite material which allows to rapidly decrease the response time of the MR damper. Hermeticity was ensured using a bellows unit. Design of this type of damper exhibits a lot of design limitations. The developed MR damper with ferrite magnetic circuit achieved response time 4.1 ms and dynamic force range 8. During the design of the MR damper for space application, a new method for design of semi-actively control MR damper with short response time were searched. Specifically, the method for elimination of eddy currents in magnetic circuit of MR damper, magnetostatic and transient magnetic model, CFD model of bypass gap, hydraulic model of MR damper and their experimental verification. The presented methods allow for the design new MR damper for space application lighter, with short response time and with higher dynamic force range.
