In this study, a smart damper based on shear thickening fluid (STF) was developed,
and its dynamic mechanical performance was investigated. STFs with various mass
fractions were prepared, and their rheological properties were characterized under
steady-state and dynamic conditions. These fluids were incorporated into
dampers, and dynamic tests were conducted under different frequencies and
amplitudes to analyze the variation in damping force. Experimental results
suggest that the STF-based damper exhibits effective damping performance. A
force-velocity relationship model of the STF damper was established based on
the experimental data, revealing that during the compression stage, the
behavior conforms to Boltzmann’s law, while during the recovery stage, it
exhibits exponential behavior. By integrating the relationships among STF
mass fractions, loading speeds, and maximum output damping forces, a
three-dimensional plot was generated to guide future research and industrial
applications.
