A theoretical analysis of a piezoelectric ultrasound device with an active matching layer [PDF]
This paper investigates the use of magnetically active materials in the matching layer of a piezoelectric transducer. This then allows the performance of the device to be dynamically altered by applying an external field.

Simulation of Magnetorheological Fluids Based on Lattice Boltzmann Method with Double Meshes
In order to study the rheological characteristics of magnetorheological fluids, a novel approach based on the two-component Lattice Boltzmann method with double meshes was proposed, and the micro-scale structures of magnetorheological fluids in different

Limit cycle behavior of smart fluid dampers under closed loop control [PDF]
Semiactive vibration dampers offer an attractive compromise between the simplicity and fail safety of passive devices, and the weight, cost, and complexity of fully active systems.

New Method to Calculate Electrical Forces Acting on a Sphere in an Electrorheological Fluid [PDF]
We describe a method to calculate the electrical force acting on a sphere in a suspension of dielectric spheres in a host with a different dielectric constant, under the assumption that a spatially uniform electric field is applied.

Characterisation of Natural Oils as Carrier Fluids for Magnetorheological Fluids
The field of application of Magnetorheological fluids (MRF) is widening. The carrier fluids being used now are synthetic, expensive and non-biodegradable. Hence, there is a need for looking for better and inexpensive alternatives. This study was intended
