This paper presents the field-dependent Bingham characteristics and damping force control of an electro-rheological (ER) fluid under squeeze mode operation. The squeeze force of the ER fluid due to the imposed electric field is analyzed and an appropriate size of the disk-type electrode is devised. On the basis of the theoretical model of the ER fluid under squeeze mode operation, the yield stress and response speed of the ER fluid are distilled from the time responses of squeeze force to the step electric potentials. Measured squeeze forces under various excitation conditions are compared with the predicted ones from Bingham model and time constant obtained at the transient response test. In addition, the controllability of the field-dependent damping force of the ER fluid under squeeze mode is experimentally demonstrated by implementing simple PID controller.

본 논문은 전단모드와 유동모드 하에서 자기유변유체의 빙햄 및 응답특성 실험을 실시한 것이다. 실험을 위해 전단모드와 유동모드에서 작동하는 두 가지 자기점도계가 제작되었으며, 자기유변유체는 로드사의 MRF-132LD가 사용되었다. 자기장의 변화에 따른 전단응력이 다양한 온도에서 실험적으로 실시되었다. 이로부터 직선보간법을 이용하여 항복전단응력을 도출하였으며, 온도에 따른 변화가 매우 적은 것을 확인했다. 또한 자기유변유체의 사각파에 대한 응답특성이 작동모드에 따라 비교되었다.

This paper presents performance analyses of three types of the cylindrical-type ER(electro-rheo-logical) valves, which have different electrode length and width but same electrode area. Following the composition of silicone oil-based ER fluid, the field-dependent yield stresses are obtained from experimental investigation on the Bingham property of the ER fluid. The ER valve which is dependent on the applied electric field is devised and its theoretical model is derived. On the basis of the pressure-drop analysis, three types of the ER valves are designed and manufactured. After experimentally evaluation field-dependent pressure drops, PI controller is formulated to achieve tracking control on desired pressure drop. The controller is then experimentally implemented and tracking control performance is presented in order to demonstrate superior controllability of the ER valve. In addition, the response characteristic of the ER valve with respect to the excitation frequency of the electric fiedls is provided to show the feasibility of practical application.

Electrorheological(HER) and magnetorheologica(MR) fluids have a unique ability to increase the dynamic yield stress of the fluid substantially when electric or magnetic field is applied. ER and MR fluid-based dampers are typically analyzed using Bingham-plastic shear flow analysis under Quasi-steady fully developed flow conditions. An alternative perspective, supported by measurements reported in the literature, is to allow for post-yield shear thinning and shear thickening. To model these, the constant post-yield plastic viscosity in Bingham model can be replaced with a power-law model dependent on shear strain rate that is known as the Herschel-Bulkley fluid model. The objective of this paper is to predict the damping forces analytically in a typical ER bypass damper for variable electric field, or yield stress using Herschel-Bulkley analysis.

Electro-Rheological(ER) fluids change their apparent viscosity according to the electric field strength. The electrical and rheological properties of zeolite based the ER fluids were reported. The electric field dependent yield stress are obtained from experimental investigation on the Bingham property of the ER fluid. Using ER fluids, it is possible to directly interface between electric drop and flow rate of the ER fluid was hydraulic control valve measured under application of an electric field. The purpose of the present study is pressure drop measurement of an ER valve by using strain gage. The performance characteristics of the valve system are evalusted in terms of pressrue fixed with respect to the intensity of employed electric fields and flow rates. As a result, it is esperimentally confirmed that pressure control valve using ER fluids applicable to use in hydraulic power systems.

Electro-rheological(ER) fluids are suspensions which show an abrupt increase in rheological properties under electric fields. The rheological response is very rapid and reversible when the electric field is imposed and/or removed. Therefore, there are many practical applications using the ER fluids. The purpose of the present study is to examine the flow characteristics of electro-rheological fluids. The field-dependent yield stress are obtained from experimental investigation on the Bingham property of the ER fluid. Then the steady relationshup between pressure drop and flow rate of the ERF was two fixed parallel-plates was measured under application of an electric fields. The electrical and rheological properties of zeolite based electro-rheological fluids were reported.

This study presents model synthesis and performance investigation of a new brake system using electro-rheological(ER) fluids. Field-dependent Bingham properties characterized by non-zero yield stresses of the ER fluids are experimentally distilled. These properties are then incorporated with the governing equation of the proposed brake system which features design simplicity, fast response and salient controllability. After analyzing system performance with respect to design parameters such as electrode gap and length, an appropriate size of the brake is designed and fabricated. Both simulation and experimental works are undertaken in order to determine the feasibility and efficiency of the proposed brake system. The system performances are justified by evaluating field-dependent braking torques as well as braking times.

In this paper, path-independent values of the J-integral in the fininte element context for arbitrary two-dimensional and three-dimensional crack configurations in welds are presented. For the fracture mechanics analysis of cracks in welds, residual stress analysis and fracture analysis must be performed simultaneously. In the analysis of cracked bodies containing residual stress, the usual domain integral formulation results in path-dependent values of the J-integral. This paper discusses modifications of the conventional J-integral that yield path independence in the presence of residual stress generated by welding. The residual stress problem is treated as an initial strain problem and the J-integral modified for this class of problem is used. And a finite element program which can evaluate the J-integral for cracks in two-dimensional and three-dimensional residual stress bearing bodies is developed using the modified J-integral definition. The situation when residual stress only is present is examed as is the case when mechanical stresses are applied in conjunction with a residual stress field.

This paper addresses on the determination of damping coefficients of an infinitely long squeeze film damper operating with an electro-rheological (ER) fluid. The ER fluid behaves as Bingham fluid with an electric field dependent yield shear stress. AS phenomenological model of the fluid is adopted for the relationship between the yield shear and the intensity of the electric field imposed on the fluid domain. The model is then incorporated with the governing equation and associated boundary conditions of the squeeze film damper executing a circula centered orbit for the expression of dimension- less damping coefficients. Numerical simulation is performed to evaluate the performance improvement of the proposed squeeze film damper.
