Investigating the Benefit of MR fluids in Shock Absorbers [PDF]

, 2013
The beneficial properties of magnetorheological (MR) fluids are applied in the design and testing of a prototype suspension system. Because MR fluids become more viscous under the influence of a magnetic field, a suspension shock absorber containing MR ...

Galinstan Liquid Metal/Polyurethane Composite as a Multifunctional Stretchable Electrode and Piezoresistive Strain Sensor With Minimal Drift

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Liquid metal additives are processed in elastomer host resulting in highly conductive and stretchable composites. The material functions as a piezoresistive sensor with minimal drift, low stiffness, and enhanced operating range. The film can replace wires to charge a mobile phone at ∼350% strain and monitors bodily motion in real‐time via a portable ...

Temperature Behavior of Magnetorheological Fluids

Applied Rheology, 2005
Magnetorheological fluids (MRFs) show a high but reversible rise of the viscosity upon application of an external magnetic field. This effect can be utilized in controllable friction dampers where the MR fluid flows through a gap with a adjustable ...
