Abstract
This study is an attempt to explore the impact of introducing the system controlling the recoil effect by the use of the controlled magnetorheological damper (MR) to the weapon – gunner system. The analyzed modification will influence, among others, the recoil effect and the associated loss of stability of the weapon – gunner system in regard to maintaining the stability of weapon guidance on target. The study includes the results of laboratory tests of the weapon – gunner system equipped with a prototype of the TR-1.0M damper, as well as a rheological model of the system that has been developed together with a system of equations describing it. It also presents the estimated range of currents useful for controlling the magnetorheological structure and the optimal size of the slot in the damper. Taking into account the results of the laboratory tests, it may be concluded that the introduction of a structure based on the magnetorheological damper to the weapon – gunner system has a positive effect on the loss of stability of the system in regard to maintaining the stability of weapon guidance on target and increases the comfort of the gunner during firing.
