The damping constant is the ratio between damping force and
squeeze velocity. The damping constant can be used to
calculate the amplitude of motion around L and the
hydrostatic pressure p when the piston is subjected to
sinusoidal vibrations F(t). The
normalised impuls is the averaged damping force from
starting position L=0 to L. The normalised impuls can be
used to calculate the displacement of the piston when
subjected by shock loading Fdt. The Reynolds number in the
capillar needs to be checked while laminar viscous flow is
assumed. For the working of suspension and shock absorbers
