Energy harvesting shock absorbers (EHSA) have made great progress in recent years,
although there are still no commercial solutions for this technology. This paper addresses
the question of whether, and under what conditions, an EHSA can completely replace a
conventional one. In this way, any conventional suspension could be replicated at will, while
recovering part of the wasted energy. This paper focuses on mimicking the original passive
damper behavior by continuously varying the electrical parameters of the regenerative …
