A nonlinear theory for fibre-reinforced magneto-elastic rods
We derive a model for the finite motion of a magneto-elastic rod reinforced with isotropic (spherical) or anisotropic (ellipsoidal) inclusions. The particles are assumed weakly and uniformly magnetised, rigid and firmly embedded into the elastomeric ...

Towards a thermo-magneto-mechanical coupling framework for magneto-rheological elastomers
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 ...

Morphological Analysis of Unstructured and Prestructured Magneto-rheological Elastomer
Abstract: By providing or not put on a magnetic flux, a magneto rheological (MR) elastomer becomes a very powerful and advanced smart material that could be twisted and responded hurriedly in relations of mechanical strength. They are elastomer materials with embedded iron elements in an elastomer environment.
