Design and Characterization of Tunable Magneto-Rheological Fluid-Elastic Mounts

Design and Characterization of Tunable Magneto-Rheological Fluid-Elastic Mounts

This study of adaptable vibration isolating mounts sets out to capture the uniqueness of magnetorheological (MR) fluidâ s variable viscosity rate, and to physically alter the damping and stiffness when used inside an elastomeric mount. Apparent variable viscosity or rheology of the MR fluid has de...
