Electrophysical and rheological characteristics of ER fluids with TiO2 particles doped with aluminum and phosphorus and having anatase structure are considered in an extended temperature range (5–100°C). The mechanisms of leakage currents in the ER fluid

Soft starters are effective devices used to provide overload protection for motors from large mechanical shocks during the start-up period. However, existing soft starters require additional power supplies, sensors, and complex control elements that pose

Continuum modelling of electrorheological fluids
A thermodynamical continuum modelling is proposed for electrorheological fluids. This theormodynamical approach tries to describe the response of an electrorheological fluid in the solid phase (which means with an applied adequate electric field) under mechanical solicitations. Thermodynamic formulations distinguish the contributions due to reversible

New Modular Fixed-Point Theorem in the Variable Exponent Spaces ℓp(.)
In this work, we prove a fixed-point theorem in the variable exponent spaces ℓp(.), when p−=1 without further conditions. This result is new and adds more information regarding the modular structure of these spaces.

Microfluidic Valve‐Integrated Garment for Smooth Sequential Gradient Mechanotherapy
We present a soft wearable sleeve that delivers smooth, gap‐free compression using overlapping air‐filled actuators and tiny microfluidic valves. The system reduces bulk, lowers power needs, and uses a smartphone‐sized control box. It can provide sequential gradient compression, gradient pressure holding, and fast deflation, supporting more portable ...

Self‐improving property for certain degenerate functionals with generalized Orlicz growth
Abstract We investigate a self‐improving property of variational integrals in a weighted framework under generalized Orlicz growth conditions. Assuming that the weight belongs to an appropriate Muckenhoupt class and the growth function satisfies standard structural conditions, we prove that the gradient of any local quasi‐minimizer has local higher ...

Electric alignment of plate shaped clay aggregates in oils
We experimentally investigate the rotation of plate shaped aggregates of clay mineral particles immersed in silicone oil. The rotation is induced by an external electric field.

Weak Solutions for a Class of Nonlocal Singular Problems Over the Nehari Manifold
ABSTRACT In this paper, we consider a nonlocal model of dilatant non‐Newtonian fluid with a Dirichlet boundary condition. By using the Nehari manifold and fibering map methods, we obtain the existence of at least two weak solutions, with sign information.

Current Trends in Fluid Viscous Dampers with Semi-Active and Adaptive Behavior
Fluid viscous dampers (FVDs) have shown their efficiency as energy-dissipating systems, reducing the effects induced on structures by dynamic loading conditions like earthquakes and winds. In this paper, the evolution of this technology is reviewed, with
