The diploma thesis deals with the application of acoustic methods for evaluating the technical condition of the shock absorbers. Analysis of acoustic radiation during damping operation leads to the definition of a new non-contact diagnostic methodology that can determine the condition of the shock absorbers. The first part of the thesis focuses on the noise radiation of the shock absorbers, which is caused by discontinuous dumping. Further, the methods for the noise source localization available at The Institute of Machine and Industrial Design are described – with their functionalities, advantages and limitations. Based on all the information, an appropriate method is selected and used in the experimental part of this work. Then, aeration and removing the full volume of oil with damage of the shock absorber tube are caused (induced) on several types of the shocks. Noise radiation is measured by a microphone array and by a sound meter; the acoustic maps, frequency spectra and the synchronous filtration graphs are calculated from the measured data. From the differences in the acoustic radiations of each shock condition, a suitable diagnostic criterion for a specific shock absorber is defined. The final part discusses obtained results. Based on these results, a general diagnostic methodology, applicable to any type of shock absorber, is formulated.
