On the Influence of Magnetic Field on the Forms of Free and Forced Vibrations of a Three-Layer Plate Containing Magnetorheological Elastomer

open access: yesМеханика машин, механизмов и материалов, 2014
Free and forced vibrations of a three-layered rectangular plate containing a magnetorheological elastomer is considered. The influence of the external stationary magnetic field on the natural frequencies and decrement of the plate is analyzed.

A Three‐Phase Electrostatic Clutch with Variable Mechanical Impedance Control for Soft Robotic Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 45, December 4, 2025.
The research introduces a three‐phase electrostatic (ES) clutch with variable mechanical impedance control, specifically designed to enable continuous and precise friction modulation, thereby reducing both force degradation and oscillatory motion. This method effectively resolves conventional ES clutch issues, such as residual charge accumulation and ...

Artificial skin sensation for neuroprosthetic hands

open access: yesFlexMat, Volume 2, Issue 4, Page 458-474, December 2025.
In this review, Li et al. provide a systematic summary of the design strategy and performance of flexible tactile sensors for neuroprosthetic hands, which can efficiently transduce environmental stimuli such as pressure, temperature, and pain. The comparisons of sensing modality between human skin and each flexible sensor subtype are also discussed ...

Mesoscopic models for definition of the large-scale elastic properties of the soft magnetic elastomers

open access: yesVestnik Samarskogo Gosudarstvennogo Tehničeskogo Universiteta. Seriâ: Fiziko-Matematičeskie Nauki, 2017
A pair of magnetizing particles embedded in a cylinder made of a highelasticity (hyperelastic) material is considered as a model of a mesoscopic structure element of a soft magnetic elastomer. In the presence of the magnetic field particles magnetize and

Multi‐Scale Modeling of a 3D Soft Magnetoelectric Patch for Wireless Nerve Stimulation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 12, Issue 20, October 27, 2025.
Core‐shell, magnetoelectric nanoparticles (MENPs) can serve as wireless electric nano‐sources, thanks to their ability to generate high levels of electricity, when stimulated by a human‐safe external magnetic field. By combining MENPs with soft, biocompatible polymeric matrices and optimizing its composite configuration and electrical behavior via ...

Magnetorheological Elastomers Containing Ionic Liquids

open access: yes, 2011
The term ionic liquid (IL) refers to a class of liquids that are composed solely of ions1. It is a synonym for molten salt. IL in a narrow sense often indicates room-temperature ionic liquid (RIL) that exists as a liquid at room temperature. Ionic liquids (ILs), which have been widely promoted as “green solvents”, are attracting much attention for ...

Gripping characteristics of an electromagnetically activated magnetorheological fluid-based gripper

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2018
The design and test of a magnetorheological fluid (MRF)-based universal gripper (MR gripper) are presented in this study. The MR gripper was developed to have a simple design, but with the ability to produce reliable gripping and handling of a wide range

Multifunctional Position and Stiffness Control of Soft Fluidic Actuators Using Supercooled Liquid

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2025.
This work explores the use of supercooled liquid as a multifunctional working fluid for soft actuators to allow independent control of position and stiffness; the solution is used to both inflate the elastomer chambers while in liquid state and to achieve a dramatic increase in stiffness (up to 13 times) with rapid, reversible crystallization.
