[QUOTE="Flo, post: 97831, member: 3744"] A damper exerts a speed dependent opposing force to the motion correponding to the mode of the oscillation. The energy source for the oscillation of the steering system (at approx 1 to 2 Hz) is the driving force (including the kinety energy) of the whole vehicle. That means a damper that would be able to dissipate that energy completely, once the mode is fully operating would not be practical considering the functional requirements of the steering, The task of a steering damper is to avoid potantial exitation of the dangerous mode and/or impede the formation of the mode before it can draw sufficient energy from the vehicle.
