Usually, .. image:: images/Object_26.svg :width: 382 :height: 166 .. _RefImage_Object_26.svg: is equal to a few% of the critical damping of the system: .. image:: images/Object_27.svg :width: 382 :height: 166 .. _RefImage_Object_27.svg: . where .. image:: images/Object_28.svg :width: 382 :height: 166 .. _RefImage_Object_28.svg: is the inertia of the air cylinder calculated above and .. image:: images/Object_29.svg :width: 382 :height: 166 .. _RefImage_Object_29.svg: spring stiffness at the pivot point .. image:: images/Object_30.svg :width: 382 :height: 166 .. _RefImage_Object_30.svg: . We take the reduced depreciation .. image:: images/Object_31.svg :width: 382 :height: 166 .. _RefImage_Object_31.svg: equal to 1%.
