Popis: Electric vehicle (EV) uses battery pack as energy storage that has limited capacity. Hence, besides increasing the energy usage efficiency of the vehicle, harvesting regenerative energy from braking or shock absorbing may help to prolong the driving range of the EV. This paper describes the reason for the uprising of Electric Vehicle and some of the existing energy regenerative suspension system while proposed a new hybrid damper. The concept, design and idea of the new damper are briefly introduced and a simulation is mainly done on the eddy current damper component. This multimode design provides energy harvesting system with a promising regenerative source for an EV.
