The MR Fluid has vast applications in various engineering as well as day to day life. There is huge potential that this revolutionary material will provide many leading edge applications. The fluid has applications in various fields such as automotive industry, household applications, prosthetics, civil engineering, hydraulics, brakes and clutches, etc. Also there is a possible application of the fluid in reducing the effect of Gun Recoil. This paper will describe these applications and working of proposed application. Keywords: MR Fluid, Viscosity, Dampers, Prosthetics, Gun Recoil. 1. Introduction To take full advantage of MRF technologythe base fluid must have a low viscosity and it should be constant 1 Rheos is a Greek word to Flow. Rheology is the science with temperature. This is required for variation due to if material flow under external load conditions. The applied magnetic field to be more effective than natural word Magnetorheological Fluid means fluid whose viscosity. The presences of suspended particles make apparent viscosity increases, with application of base fluid thicker. Commonly used base fluids are MAGNETIC field. Also known as MR fluids, these fluids mineral oils, hydrocarbon oils, and Silicon oils.

With the rapid development of soft electronics, flexible sensors have made considerable progress, and can better fit the objects to detect and, thus respond to changes more sensitively. Recently, as a newly emerging electronic ink, liquid metal is being increasingly investigated to realize various electronic elements, especially soft ones. Compared to conventional soft sensors, the introduction of liquid metal shows rather unique advantages. Due to excellent flexibility and conductivity, liquid-metal soft sensors present high enhancement in sensitivity and precision, thus producing many profound applications. So far, a series of flexible and wearable sensors based on liquid metal have been designed and tested. Their applications have also witnessed a growing exploration in biomedical areas, including health-monitoring, electronic skin, wearable devices and intelligent robots etc. This article presents a systematic review of the typical progress of liquid metal-enabled soft sensors, including material innovations, fabrication strategies, fundamental principles, representative application examples, and so on.

In particular, the focus is on the generation and manipulation of droplets that are based on the giant electrorheological fluid (GERF). We elaborate on the preparation and characteristics of the GERF, the relevant microfluidics chip format, and the generation and control of droplets using GERF as either droplets or the carrier fluid. An important application of the GERF droplets, in the realization of first universal microfluidic logic device which can execute the 16 Boolean logic operations, is detailed. I.

Examples: NiTiNOL (thermal), NiMnGa, Fe-Pd, Terfenol-D (Magnetic) CuZnSi, CuZnAl, CuZnGa, CuZnSn (actuator) Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) are a unique class of metal alloys that can recover apparent permanent strains when they are heated above a certain temperature. Austenite – High Temp Two Phases of SMA Martensite- Low Temp Twinned De twinned A phase transformation which occurs between these two phases upon heating/cooling is the basis for the unique properties of the SMAs.

  • Magnetic Particles Study and Their Applications
    Magnetic Particles Study and Their Applications Yichuan Wang MSc by Research University of York Electronics February 2014 Abstract Magnetic fluids have been developed for decades and show lots of advantages in different areas of applications. This project was focusing mainly on two popular magnetic fluids: 1) the Ferrofluid (FF) which can be used in vacuum sealing and medical purpose, etc. 2) the Magnetorheological (MR) fluid which has the capability of changing material properties by applying an external magnetic field, which can be used to replace hydraulic oil in traditional shock absorber with a more advanced absorber or seismic damper. During this project, I had successfully fabricated the magnetic nano particles, the Ferrofluid and the MR fluid. In order to study the reasons causing the change of yield stress and the reaction conditions effect on the final particle products and also the factors effect on particle settling speed in the MR fluid, we designed and carried out several experiments by using crashed glass, lithium grease as additives, changing particle ratio, controlling different reaction conditions and other methods to achieve the goals. The measurements included Scanning Electron Microscope, Energy Dispersive X-ray analysis, Vibrating Sample Magnetometer, yield stress tests and particle settling tests had carried out to study the properties of magnetic fluids. The results of the experiments showed additives like crashed glass cannot have the same effect as carbonyl iron powder does in the MR fluid, and the concentration of reagents and reaction temperature will significantly affect the produce of magnetic nano particles. Also the 3D graph of a self-designed MR fluid based car shock absorber had been plotted by Autodesk software.
