Magnetic-Driven Viscous Mechanisms in Ultra-Soft Magnetorheological Elastomers Offer History-Dependent Actuation with Reprogrammability Options. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)Magnetically induced microstructural rearrangements in ultra‐soft magnetorheological elastomers modulate their viscoelasticity, enabling programmable mechanical memory. Magnetic actuation induces long‐term viscous relaxation and double‐bumping stress responses due to particle chain formation.

Characterization of Ferrofluid-based Stimuli-responsive Elastomers [PDF]
, 2016 Stimuli-responsive materials undergo physicochemical, and/or structural changes when a specific actuation is applied. They are heterogeneous composites, consisting of a non-responsive matrix where functionality is provided by the filler.

Optimization of magneto-rheological elastomers for energy harvesting applications [PDF]
Smart Materials and Structures, 2020 Recent works demonstrated the abilities of magneto rheological elastomers (MREs) for mechanical to electrical energy conversion. This class of materials consists of composites composed of a soft elastic matrix filled by ferromagnetic particles. In this work we focus primarily on anisotropic MREs featuring particles that are non-homogenously dispersed ...
