A Magneto-Active Elastomer Crawler with Peristaltic and Caterpillar Locomotion Patterns
Actuators, 2021 In this work we present a soft crawler fabricated using a magneto-active elastomer. The crawler is controlled by an external magnetic field to produce two locomotion patterns: peristaltic and caterpillar crawling.

Control of Droplet Impact through Magnetic Actuation of Surface Microstructures
Advanced Materials Interfaces, 2023 An effective method for on‐demand control over the impact dynamics of droplets on a magnetoresponsive surface is reported. The surface is comprised of micrometer‐sized lamellas from a magnetoactive elastomer on a copper substrate.

Diversifying temporal responses of magnetoactive elastomers
Materials Research Express, 2020 Abstract Magnetoactive elastomers(MAEs) are able to deform significantly in response to the application of magnetic fields. Usually, a magnetic field which is harmonic in time usually results in a harmonic mechanical response of the MAEs.

A Cascading Mean-Field Approach to the Calculation of Magnetization Fields in Magnetoactive Elastomers [PDF]
, 2021 We consider magnetoactive elastomer samples based on the elastic matrix and magnetizable particle inclusions. The application of an external magnetic field to such composite samples causes the magnetization of particles, which start to interact with each
