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.

Towards a thermo-magneto-mechanical coupling framework for magneto-rheological elastomers [PDF]
International Journal of Solids and Structures, 2017 Abstract Magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) are a relatively new class of smart materials that can undergo large deformations resulting from external magnetic excitation. These are promising candidates in producing sensors and actuators. Due to their inherent chemical compositions, most polymeric materials are highly susceptible to temperature ...

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 ...
