Thermoresistance and giant magnetoresistance of magnetorheological elastomers [PDF]
A new magnetorheological elastomer composite (MRE) was developed with a resistance which is strongly sensitive both to temperature and pressure. The electrical resistance of this MRE was investigated versus pressure and temperature. The resistance of the composite was recorded versus pressure for seven different values of the temperature. The mechanism
