Magnetorheological (MR) suspensions can serve as the basis of transducers controlling hydraulic resistance; the mathematical model for such a transducer can be derived via quasi-stationary approximation, taking into account the transient processes in the magnetic field inductor. Accounts are presently given of damping and antishock devices employing the MR element. Such devices' characterizations are obtained by supplementing the system of equations describing MR transducer dynamics with relations encompassing hydromechanical processes in a hydraulic cylinder. MR transducers can be used to form flexible bridgelike distributors controlling hydraulic actuators. 3 refs.
