Nonlinear ac response of anisotropic composites
When a suspension consisting of dielectric particles having nonlinear characteristics is subjected to a sinusoidal (ac) field, the electrical response will in general consist of ac fields at frequencies of the higher-order harmonics.

Electrical controlled rheology of a suspension of weakly conducting particles in dielectric liquid [PDF]
The properties of suspensions of fine particles in dielectric liquid (electrorheological fluids) subjected to an electric field lead to a drastic change of the apparent viscosity of the fluid. For high applied fields (~ 3-5 kV/mm) the suspension congeals

Mechanisms of Magneto- and Electro-Rheology: Recent Progress and Unresolved Issues
An electrorheological fluid (ERF) (magnetorheological fluid - MRF) is a particulate suspension which shows a dramatic increase in flow resistance upon application of an external electric (magnetic) field. In both systems, the fundamental physical process

Effects of Surfactant Solubility on the Hydrodynamics of a Viscous Drop in a DC Electric Field
The physico-chemistry of surfactants (amphiphilic surface active agents) is often used to control the dynamics of viscous drops and bubbles. Surfactant sorption kinetics has been shown to play a critical role in the deformation of drops in extensional ...
