A Study of Friction Characteristics in Magneto-Rheological Elastomer [PDF]
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.

Characterization of Ferrofluid-Based Stimuli-Responsive Elastomers [PDF]
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.

Switchable Adhesion of Soft Composites Induced by a Magnetic Field
Switchable adhesives have the potential to improve the manufacturing and recycling of parts and to enable new modes of motility for soft robots. Here, we demonstrate magnetically-switchable adhesion of a two-phase composite to non-magnetic objects.
