Dual Response of Materials under Electric and Magnetic Fields [PDF]
, 2019 The electrorheological (ER) effect is known as the change in the rheological behaviors of ER fluids under applied electric field E. When an E is imposed, ER fluids show phase transition from a liquid to a solid-like state due to the interactions of ...
