Energy conversion in magneto-rheological elastomers [PDF]
Science and Technology of Advanced Materials, 2017 Magneto-rheological (MR) elastomers contain micro-/nano-sized ferromagnetic particles dispersed in a soft elastomer matrix, and their rheological properties (storage and loss moduli) exhibit a significant dependence on the application of a magnetic field

Field-stiffening effect of magneto-rheological elastomers
International Journal of Solids and Structures, 2013 AbstractMagneto-rheological elastomers (MREs) are a class of soft active materials known for their tunable stiffness. Dispersed with magnetic particles, these polymer-based composites tend to be stiffer under a magnetic field. Such a stiffening effect is often attributed to the magnetic interaction among filler particles, but the well-acknowledged ...

Magnetic Characteristic and Elastic Modulus of Magneto-Rheological Elastomers
Nihon Reoroji Gakkaishi, 2009 In the present study various magneto-rheological elastomers, which are mixtures with ferromagnetic particles and silicone gel, are introduced in order to develop a new type of magnetic viscoelastic material. Such materials, in view of industrial application, require substantial change of mechanical properties to create a large deformation due to ...

Magneto-Rheological Elastomer Composites. A Review [PDF]
Applied Sciences, 2020 Magneto-rheological elastomer (MRE) composites belong to the category of smart materials whose mechanical properties can be governed by an external magnetic field. This behavior makes MRE composites largely used in the areas of vibration dampers and absorbers in mechanical systems.

Fatigue life prediction of magneto-rheological elastomers in magnetic field
Materials Research Express, 2021 Fatigue life is one of the most important characteristics of materials. Predicting fatigue life in magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) under combined and repetitive loads is an unavoidable step to increase the safety coefficient of MREs.

A Study of Friction Characteristics in Magneto-Rheological Elastomer [PDF]
Journal of the Korean Society of Tribologists and Lubrication Engineers, 2011 In this study, friction characteristics using elastomeric actuator with Magneto-rheological (MR) materials are identified. Typically, Magneto-rheological materials are divided into two groups by MR fluid in fluid state and MR elastomer in solid state like rubber.
