Electrorheological Fluid Dynamics [PDF]
We use the Onsager principle to derive a two-phase continuum formulation for the hydrodynamics of the electrorheological (ER) fluid, consisting of dielectric microspheres dispersed in an insulating liquid. Predictions of the theory are in excellent agreement with the experiments.

Structure of electrorheological fluids [PDF]
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.

Flow of electrorheological fluid under conditions of slip on the boundary
We study a mathematical model describing flows of electrorheological fluids. A theorem of existence of a weak solution is proved. For this purpose the approximating-topological method is used.

Halloysite nanotubes: Prospects in electrorheology
Electrorheological fluids based on polydimethylsiloxane filled with halloysite nanotubes were studied. The filler structure was characterized by TEM, SEM, and X-ray diffraction. When an electric field is applied to suspensions, their rheological behavior

On a doubly degenerate parabolic equation with a nonlinear damping term
Consider a double degenerate parabolic equation arising from the electrorheological fluids theory and many other diffusion problems. Let v ε $v_{\varepsilon }$ be the viscous solution of the equation. By showing that | ∇ v ε | ∈ L ∞ ( 0 , T ; L loc p ( x
