The article describes a method for calculating the speed characteristics of a single-tube hydro-pneumatic shock absorber developed by the author based on the use of basic approaches to the calculation of damping hydraulic systems. A regressive type of characteristic is substantiated in relation to the operating conditions of a specialized vehicle in urban conditions. There has been performed calculation and analysis of the speed characteristics of the hydro-pneumatic shock absorber proposed for use on Ford Transit ambulances.
