The electrorheological (ER) behavior of suspensions in silicone oil of phosphoric ester cellulose powder (average particle size: 17.77 $\mu$m) was investigated at room temperature with electric fields up to 2.5 KV/mm. For development of anhydrous ER suspensions using at wide temperature range, we aimed to know the effect of activation of phosphoric ester cellulose particles on the ER activities. As a first step, the anhydrous ER suspensions mixing with the phosphoric ester cellulose particles which were treated with 2M phosporic acid and 4M urea were measured. After activating the anhydrous ER suspensions at 12$0^{\circ}C$, not only the analysis of dispersing cellulose particles which were reacted by phosphoric ester but also the electrorheological characteristics of ER suspensions such as dielectric constant, current density, electrical conductivity and rheological properties were studied. From the experimental results, the activation of phosphoric ester cellulose particles had an influence on the ER properties of anhydrous ER suspensions. As the activation time went by, the size and number of dispersing particles, the electrical properties and the initial apparent viscosity $(η_0)$ of ER suspensions were increased till the activation time passed 5 hours. Also, it was possible, the electrorheological effect $($\tau$/$\tau$_0)$ of ER fluids was grown by the activation of phosphoric ester cellulose particles.

Onsager 이론으로 확장된 Maxwell-Wagner 분극 모델을 이용하여 전도성 입자로 제조된 전기유변(Electrorheological, ER) 액체의 전기유변 현상에 대한 전산 모사를 수행하였다. 확장된 Maxwell-Wagner 분극 모델을 이용한 전산 모사는 전도성 입자로 제조된 전기유변 액체의 특성인 비제곱 전기유변 현상(Δτ∝Eⁿ, n≈1.5)을 확인하였다. 전단 흐름에서 전단응력이 정상상태에 도달하는 시점은 전기장 하에서 생성된 사슬 모양 구조가 전단 흐름에 의해 깨짐과 재생성이 정상상태에 도달하는 지점으로 나타났다. 또한, 전단 속도의 증가에 따라 전단응력이 최솟값을 보이는 전도성 입자를 기반으로 한 전기유변 액체의 현상도 관찰하였으며, 이것은 입자의 사슬 모양 구조가 무작위 배열로 바뀌는 순간에 발생하는 것임을 관찰하였다. 입자의 부피 분율 ϕ가 증가에 따라 전단응력은 증가하다가 일정해지는 경향도 관찰하였다.

The electrorheological (ER) behavior of suspensions in silicone oil of phosphoric ester cellulose powder (average particle size : 18$\pm$1 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) was investigated on the elevated temperature up to 10$0^{\circ}C$. For development of anhydrous ER fluids using at wide temperature range, it should be researched to how the effect of temperature on the ER activities. As a first step, the anhydrous ER suspensions mixing with the phosphoric ester cellulose particles which were made from the phosphoric ester reaction of cellulose were measured. As increasing the temperature, not only the analysis of electrical properties such as dielectric constant current density and electrical conductivity but also the rheological properties of ER fluids were studied. From the experimental results, the temperature had a large influence to the ER properties of anhydrous ER fluids. The current density, conductivity and elecoorheological effect ($\tau$$_{A}$$\tau$$_{0}$) of phosphoric ester cellulose ER fluids were proportional to the temperature with power law. And the shear stress of them was closely related with the square of dielectric constant mismatch parameter ($\beta$$^2$) under constant shear rate and electric field.d.

In this work, an experimental type of torque converter has been constructed and its characteristics have been evaluated by adapting an electrorheological fluid(ERF) as an operating medium. The device was designed by using the equations which were proposed by Carlson et al. The correlation between the rheological behaviour of an ERF and mechanical parameters of the clutch has been investigated. The torque generated by an ERF in this device is sum of one due to the yield strength by polarizing dispersed particles in dielectric oil and one due to the viscous drag. The experimental results are presented in terms of torque and current density as a function of rotational speed at various electric field strength applied. Experimental results showed that the measured torque was rapidly increased with the increase of the electric field, generally being proportional to the rotational speed of the motor. The measured current was shown to be increased with the increased electric field. Also, the current was decreased with the increase of increased with the increased electric field. Also, the current was decreased with the increase of the rotational speed of the motor and reached plateau region after f = 5 Hz.

본 연구에서는 분극성을 갖는 미세분말/유전유체 분산계내의 전기유변효과를 mechanism을 중심으로 고찰하였다. 전기유변효과를 일으키는 mechanism을 (1)입자표면전도(surface conductance) (2)입자내부전도(bulk conductance(3) 유도분극(induced polarization)으로 구분하여 설명하였다. 소수성(anhydrous-base)전기유변유체 내의 미세분말 입자간 상호인력을 예측할 수 있도록 유도분극 mechanism을 적용하여 수학적으로 모델화 함으로써 전기유변효과를 향상 시키기 위한 재료선정의 기초로 하였다. 전기유변유체의 미세입자로 이용될 수 있다고 여겨지는 ceramic, ferrite 및 polymer등 7가지 재료를 선정하여 계산한 결과 ceramic및 ferrite입자가 입자간 상호인력이 큰것으로 나타났다.

The electrorheological (ER) behavior of suspensions in silicone oil of phosphated cellulose particles (average particle size 17.77 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) was investigated at room temperature with electric fields up to 2.5 KV/mm. In this paper, for development of anhydrous ER suspensions using at wide temperature range, we would like to know fundamental understandings on the ER activity. As a first step, the anhydrous ER suspensions dispersed the phosphated cellulose particles were measured, and not only the electrical characteristics such as dielectric constant, current density and electrical conductivity but also the rheological properties on strength of electric field and quantity of dispersed phase were studied. From the experimental results, the anhydrous ER suspensions dispersed phosphated cellulose particles showed a stable current density and very high performance of ER effect $(\tau/\tau_0=1030)$ on the 2.5 KV/mm and the dynamic yield stress $(\tau_y)$ was in exponential proportion to the strength of electric fields.

In the present work, a seat suspension system adopting semi-active damper is evaluated for driver's ride quality. A cylindrical type of ER(electrorheological) damper is designed and manufactured for the seat suspension of heavy vehicles. The governing equation is derived under consideration of human vibration. A sliding mode controller is then synthesized and experimentally realized on the manufactured ER seat suspension while a driver is sitting on the controlled seat. Ride quality is evaluated by fatigue decreased proficiency boundary, vibration dose value and crest factor utilizing weighted-acceleration according to ISO2631.

This paper presents an active position control of a single-rod cylinder system featuring an electrorheological(ER) fluid-based valve. The ER fluid consisting of silicone oil and chemically treated particles is firstly composed and its Bingham property is tested as a function of imposed electric field. A multi-channel plate type of ER valve is then designed and manufactured on the basis of the field-dependent Bingham model. Performance test of the ER valve is undertaken by evaluating pressure drop with respect to the number of electrode as well as the intensity of the electric field. Subsequently, the ER valve-cylinder system is constructed and its governing equation of motion is derived. A neural control scheme for position control of the cylinder is formulated by incorporating proportional-plus-derivative(PD) controller and implemented. Experimental results of both regulating and tracking control responses are presented in order to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed ER valve-cylinder control system.
