Properties and applications of Magnetorheological fluids
Journal Title: Frattura ed Integrità Strutturale - Year 2013, Vol 7, Issue 23
Abstract
This brief introduction describes the mechanical, rheological and magnetic properties of the magnetorheological (MR) fluids for feasible engineering applications. The typical modes of exploiting this technology are shown and discussed. An increasing number of industrial applications illustrate how the MR fluids peculiar properties may be used to provide optimal performance in semi active damping and dissipative devices.
