amortisseur

An amortisseur, also known as a shock absorber or dampener, is a crucial component in vehicles that helps to control the movement of suspension systems by converting kinetic energy into other forms of energy. It works by adjusting the speed at which the vehicle's springs are compressed and expanded, thus providing a smoother ride and ensuring that tires maintain contact with the road during varying conditions. Without an amortisseur, vehicles would experience a bumpy and uncomfortable ride, as well as reduced control over handling and stability.
