The mass is just sitting there motionless. There is no acceleration and it is in equilibrium. What does this mean? This means that the net force in the y-direction (vertical direction) must be zero. I ...

In order to study the characteristics of a rolling lobe air spring, a vertical stiffness analytical model is constructed based on thermodynamics and hydrodynamics. The merit of this vertical stiffness ...
