Shock absorber is a mechanical or hydraulic device intended to absorb shocks by converting kinetic energy of the shock into another form of energy, which is then dissipated through the hydraulic fluid. Shock absorbers for vehicles play an important role while driving and vehicle handling and provides a comfortable ride to the passengers. Shock absorbers, coupled with cushions and springs, are primarily utilized in suspension systems in order to minimize the jerks caused due to rough terrain roads. A shock absorber decreases the effect of shock and damps impulses on a rough surface or bumpy road. It also enables the vehicle tires to remain in contact with the ground at all times. Increase in daily commute distances due to expanding cities, globally, and the increased demand for a comfortable ride even on rough surfaces or terrain are expected to propel the shock absorber for automotive market during the forecast period. Development and improvement in ride handling and comfort are likel...
