magnetorheological fluid

Another way to increase the performance of magnetorheological fluids is to apply a pressure to them.

The addition of an oil based lubricant, the magnetic brush can also be considered a magnetorheological fluid.

The idea of the algorithms is to control the viscosity of the magnetorheological fluid with electric current.

Magnetorheological fluid, a fluid that changes viscosity when subjected to a magnetic field.

General Motors and other automotive companies are seeking to develop a magnetorheological fluid based clutch system for push-button four wheel drive systems.

A magnetorheological fluid, for example, becomes thicker when subjected to a magnetic field, possibly to the point of behaving like a solid.

The dampers, filled with magnetorheological fluid, are adjusted based on sensor readings that happen at 1 ms intervals.

The difference between ferrofluids and magnetorheological fluids (MR fluids) is the size of the particles.

The dampers are filled with magnetorheological fluid, a mixture of easily magnetized iron particles in a synthetic hydrocarbon oil.

Magnetorheological fluids have micrometre scale magnetic particles that are one to three orders of magnitude larger than those of ferrofluids.

A magnetorheological fluid (MR fluid) is a type of smart fluid in a carrier fluid, usually a type of oil.

The term magnetorheological fluid (MRF) refers to liquids similar to ferrofluids (FF) that solidify in the presence of a magnetic field.

Even though applying a pressure strongly improves the magnetorheological fluids behaviour, particular attention must be paid in terms of mechanical resistance and chemical compatibility of the sealing system used.

A magnetorheological damper or magnetorheological shock absorber is a damper filled with magnetorheological fluid, which is controlled by a magnetic field, usually using an electromagnet.

Newer studies have focused on dimorphic magnetorheological fluids, which are conventional sphere-based fluids in which a fraction of the spheres, typically 2 to 8 wt%, are replaced with nanowires.

Rheometry is a specific concern for smart fluids such as magnetorheological fluids and electrorheological fluids, as it is the primary method to quantify the useful properties of these materials.

The electrostatic theory assumes just a two phase system, with dielectric particles forming chains aligned with an electric field in an analogous way to how magnetorheological fluid (MR) fluids work.

Libertiny is one of the co-inventors and received U.S. patent 5,598,908 for a "Magnetorheological Fluid Coupling Device and Torque Load Simulator System."

The Dongting Lake bridge is one of a handful of "next generation" bridges, worldwide, and includes cable dampers that use magnetorheological fluid which have the capability to change viscosity in response to an electromagnetic field.

But rather than depending on specially calibrated valves to regulate the fluid flow for varying road conditions, G.M.'s system uses a peculiar substance called magnetorheological fluid that transforms from a free-flowing liquid to a thick syrup in the presence of a magnetic field.

The magnetorheological fluid is produced by the Lord Corporation of Cary, N.C. Lord's technology is also used to damp the up-and-down motions in the driver's seats of tractor-trailer trucks and in artificial limbs, but only G.M. is using it in auto shock absorbers.
