Slowing of acoustic waves in electrorheological and string-fluid complex plasmas
New Journal of Physics, 2020 The PK-4 laboratory consists of a direct current plasma tube into which microparticles are injected, forming a complex plasma. The microparticles acquire many electrons from the ambient plasma and are thus highly charged and interact with each other.

Characterization and Testing of an Electrorheological Fluid Valve for Control of ERF Actuators
Actuators, 2015 Previous studies of electrorheological fluids (ERFs) were motivated by brake, clutch, damping, haptic and resistive applications, but never motivated towards developing an ERF based-hydraulic rotary actuator. One design to make such an actuator is to use

Structure of electrorheological fluids [PDF]
The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2000 Specially synthesized silica colloidal spheres with fluorescent cores were used as model electrorheological fluids to experimentally explore structure formation and evolution under conditions of no shear. Using confocal scanning laser microscopy we measured the location of each colloid in three dimensions.

Tunable Electrorheological Fluid Microfluidic Rectifier: Irreversibility of Viscous Flow Due to Spatial Asymmetry Induced Memory Effects. [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2019 Because of the reversibility of viscous flow it is not expected to obtain a fluidic rectifier simply from geometrical asymmetry without any moving mechanical parts.

Sedimentation upon different carrier liquid in giant electrorheological fluid and its application
Frontiers in Materials, 2014 When giant electrorheological (GER) fluid is settled after some time, particles can precipitate out of the oil in a multistep process that involves the formation of larger particles, the aggregation of colloids, and eventual sedimentation.
