A study of the effect of mechanical preloads on hysteresis loop of magnetorheological elastomers

In this work, an investigation of the effect of mechanical preloads on the hysteresis loop of composite soft magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) was carried out. MRE is a “smart” composite material that consists of magnetically permeable particles in a non-magnetic polymeric elastomer. When subjected...
