Stiffness-tunable device encapsulating magnetorheological fluids in a thin flexible polymer structure

open access: yesMechanical Engineering Journal, 2017
We herein propose a liquid encapsulation method for a submillimeter-size polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membrane. We selected a magnetorheological (MR) fluid as the liquid to be encapsulated in the membrane, the stiffness of which is tuned by an external ...
