Energy conversion in magneto-rheological elastomers [PDF]
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

Fatigue life prediction of magneto-rheological elastomers in magnetic field [PDF]
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.

Equi-biaxial tension tests on magneto-rheological elastomers [PDF]
A bespoke test rig has been designed to facilitate testing of magneto-rheological (MR) elastomers (MREs) under equi-biaxial tension using a standard universal test machine. Tests were performed up to 10% strain on both isotropic and anisotropic MREs with

Field-stiffening effect of magneto-rheological elastomers
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
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]
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.
