  4. Abstract:
  5. Magneto-rheological (MR) fluids consist of magnetic particles in carrying fluid. One of the drawbacks in using MR dampers in laboratory work is their price. At present, there is a compelling need for the production of the laboratory scale of MR fluids to lower their production cost. In this study, to show that the MR fluid is an applicable prototyped laboratory scale of single ended and mono-tube, MR dampers with a prototyped MR fluid are presented. The main features of produced MR fluid and dampers are simplifying in constructing and their low cost. These dampers are useful for laboratory research work. To illustrate the validity of the MR fluids, using this fluid, four MR dampers are made and based on the neuro-fuzzy (NF) algorithm are experimentally tested on a light commercial vehicle. The results of the experiment are analyzed for passengers comfort during driving. In this paper, the NF strategy is trained according to simulation results. The results that are obtained from the experiment are good and acceptable. The results have shown that the new prototyped MR dampers are implementable on actual cars for research studies with a low price
