...Farzad Ahmadkhanlou; Monon Mahboob; Stephen Bechtel; Gregory Washington Flow properties of magnetorheological (MR) fluids are greatly altered by the application of a magnetic field. The design, optimization, and control of novel devices that exploit MR fluid behavior in multidegree of freedom...

... years of relevant literature, our own methods for noncovalent surface coating of CNT’s with magnetite nanoparticles are described. The application of such composites is then explored within the framework of a magnetorheological (MR) fluid. It is found that the addition of magnetite nanoparticles to a MR...

...John R. Lloyd; Miquel O. Hayesmichel; Clark J. Radcliffe Magnetorheological (MR) fluids change their physical properties when subjected to a magnetic field. As this change occurs, the specific values of the physical properties are a function of the fluid’s time-varying organization state...

..., low viscosity fluid jet, which remains collimated and coherent before it impinges the surface to be polished, is required. A method of jet stabilization has been proposed, developed, and demonstrated whereby the round jet of magnetorheological fluid is magnetized by an axial magnetic field when...
