Mechanical properties are critical to the working performance of magnetorheological fluids (MRFs), especially in high temperature situations. This paper presents an experimental investigation to analyze the effects of temperature on mechanical properties of MRFs. First, a parallel disk method was implemented for the shear stress measurement of MRFs and the measurement principle was theoretically illustrated. Then, a detailed introduction to the MRF sample preparation and the testing device development was performed as well. In the study, five kinds of MRF samples with different material parameters were prepared and a shear stress testing device which possesses the temperature control function was developed and evaluated. After these, a series of measurements were conducted on the viscosity–temperature characteristic, shear stress–temperature characteristic and thermal stability of MRF samples. Measuring results indicated that the mechanical properties of MRFs were obviously dependent on temperature. The phenomenon mainly embodied in the reduction of off-field viscosity and shear stress with increasing temperature, as well as the performance degradation after undergoing a low–high–low temperature cycle or a high temperature treatment of more than 150 ℃.

AbstractThis study presents the thermoelastic analysis of laminated composite plates subjected to sinusoidal thermal load linearly varying across the thickness. Analytical solutions for thermal displacements and stresses are investigated by using a unified plate theory which includes different functions in terms of thickness coordinate to represent the effect of shear deformation. The theory presented is variationally consistent, does not require shear correction factor, and gives rise to transverse shear stress variation such that the transverse shear stresses vary parabolically across the thickness satisfying shear stress free surface conditions. Governing equations of equilibrium and associated boundary conditions of the theory are obtained using the principle of virtual work. The Navier solution for simply supported laminated composite plates has been developed. Numerical results are presented to demonstrate the thermal response of the laminated composite plates.

The novelty of this paper is the use of four variable refined plate theory for nonlinear analysis of plates made of functionally graded materials. The plates are subjected to pressure loading and their geometric nonlinearity is introduced in the strain–displacement equations based on Von–Karman assumptions. Unlike any other theory, the theory presented gives rise to only four governing equations. Number of unknown functions involved is only four, as against five in case of simple shear deformation theories of Mindlin and Reissner (first shear deformation theory). The plate properties are assumed to be varied through the thickness following a simple power law distribution in terms of volume fraction of material constituents. The theory presented is variationally consistent, does not require shear correction factor, and gives rise to transverse shear stress variation such that the transverse shear stresses vary parabolically across the thickness satisfying shear stress free surface conditions. The fundamental equations for functionally graded plates are obtained using the Von–Karman theory for large deflection and the solution is obtained by minimization of the total potential energy. Numerical results for functionally graded plates are given in dimensionless graphical forms; and the effects of material properties on deflections and stresses are determined. The results obtained for plate with various thickness ratios using the theory are not only substantially more accurate than those obtained using the CPT, but are almost comparable to those obtained using higher order theories having more number of unknown functions.

This paper is concerned with an experimental and theoretical study of the characteristics of two ER fluids and their application to vibration control when used in squeeze flow. It is seen that when the fluids are sandwiched between two electrodes, the lower one oscillating and the upper one fixed, displacement control of the lower electrode can be achieved by control of the applied field. Of particular interest is the dependence of the force transmitted across the fluids on oscillation frequency and applied field. A time-dependent theoretical model is seen to satisfactorily predict the device performance when allowance is made for a non-linear dependence of the post-yield shear stress on shear rate.

A theoretical model is described that was used to examine the influence of anchor inclination on pull-out capacity. Use was made of previous general findings for pile shaft adhesion prediction in stiff clays. It is shown that the adhesion available at the anchor shaft – clay interface depends on: (1) the in situ stress state in the ground; (2) anchor inclination; and (3) the initial shear stress existing in the ground in the direction of the anchor shaft. The possible importance of the reported trends is considered.

Abstract Small micellar casein particles were formed in aqueous solutions of native casein after addition of polyphosphate. These so-called submicelles aggregated and gelled with a rate that increased with increasing temperature. The evolution of the viscosity during this process was determined at constant shear rate or shear stress. When applying a small shear stress the viscosity increased strongly until the shear rate became immeasurably slow, but when the applied shear stress exceeded a critical value (σc) the aggregates broke up and the viscosity reached a maximum. At longer times the viscosity decreased rapidly at first, followed by a very slow decrease. σc was independent of the shear rate and heating temperature, but increased strongly with increasing casein concentration. At constant shear rate the stress remained close to σc, but fluctuated irregularly. After cessation of shear flow, gels were formed rapidly. Oscillation shear measurements for σ > σc showed a strongly non-linear response at the time of maximum viscosity.
