Statistical-mechanical theory of the overall magnetic properties of mesocrystals
The mesocrystal showing both electrorheological and magnetorheological effects is called electro-magnetorheological (EMR) solids. Prediction of the overall magnetic properties of the EMR solids is a challenging task due to the coexistence of the ...

Vibration isolation with smart fluid dampers: a benchmarking study [PDF]
The non-linear behaviour of electrorheological (ER) and magnetorheological (MR) dampers makes it difficult to design effective control strategies, and as a consequence a wide range of control systems have been proposed in the literature.

A Reinforcement Learning–Controlled Novel Mode‐Switching Hybrid Mass Damper on a Real Tower
This work proposes a novel passive, semiactive and active mode‐switching hybrid mass damper (MSHMD) solution for the control of an actual high‐rise tower. For the mode‐switching control of the considered building system, a reinforcement learning algorithm, Deep Q‐Network (DQN), was implemented.

Multifunctional Position and Stiffness Control of Soft Fluidic Actuators Using Supercooled Liquid
This work explores the use of supercooled liquid as a multifunctional working fluid for soft actuators to allow independent control of position and stiffness; the solution is used to both inflate the elastomer chambers while in liquid state and to achieve a dramatic increase in stiffness (up to 13 times) with rapid, reversible crystallization.

A magnetorheological fluid damper for robust vibration control of flexible rotor-bearing systems: A comparison between sliding mode and fuzzy approaches [PDF]
Squeeze Film Dampers (SFD) are commonly used for passive vibration control of rotor-bearing systems. The Magnetorheological (MR) and Electrorheological (ER) fluids in SFDs give a varying damping characteristic to the bearing that can provide active ...

Evolution of avalanche conducting states in electrorheological liquids [PDF]
Charge transport in electrorheological fluids is studied experimentally under strongly nonequlibrium conditions. By injecting an electrical current into a suspension of conducting nanoparticles we are able to initiate a process of self-organization which

New Method to Calculate Electrical Forces Acting on a Sphere in an Electrorheological Fluid [PDF]
We describe a method to calculate the electrical force acting on a sphere in a suspension of dielectric spheres in a host with a different dielectric constant, under the assumption that a spatially uniform electric field is applied.
