The magneticfield of the disc-type MR fluid damper is analysed by the finite element method ; the controllability of the disctype MR fluid damper on the dynamic behaviour of a rotor system ; and the effectiveness of the disc-type MR fluid damper in controlling the vibration of a rotor system, are studied in a flexible rotor system with an over-hung disc. It is shown that the magnetic flux density of the disc-type MR fluid damper in the working areas can significantly change with the applied current in the coil ; and that the dynamic behavior of the disc-type MR fluid damper can be varied by the application of an external magnetic field produced by a low voltage electromagnetic coil. The disc-type MR fluid damper can significantly change the dynamic characteristics of a rotor system, provided that the location of the disk-type MR fluid damper is carefully chosen. The disc-type MR fluid damper is a new actuator with good dynamic characteristics for rotating machinery.展开更多

The amplitude and width of magnetosonic soliton with different parameters in the system are studied. It is found that the normalized Zeeman energy E plays a crucial role, for E ≥ 1 the amplitude τmξ and the width we of solitary wave all decrease as E increases. That is, the introduction of spin quantum force modifies the shape of solitary magnetosonic waves and makes them more narrower and shallower.展开更多

Due to inherent hysteretic force properties of the MR dampers, analyzing and suppressing the MR-damper hysteresis effects, therefore, impose a great challenge. A quarter-vehicle MR-suspension model is formulated in conjunction with proposed hysteretic and mean MR-damper models, and the passive and semi-actively controlled MR-suspension systems are focused to investigate the influence of MR-damper force hysteresis. The semi-actively controlled MR-suspension employs the “on-off” control law in response to direction of the damper velocity, so as to generate the asymmetric damping force property form the symmetric MR-damper design. The results show that the MR-damping hysteresis yields serious transients and oscillations in responses for the semi-actively controlled MR-suspension than the passive MR-suspension due to the current-switching discontinuity, and would thus deteriorate the suspension performance. The undesired strong transients and oscillations in responses can be effectively suppressed by employing the proposed smooth technique without phase shift for modulating the command current discontinuity.展开更多

The deformable mirror utilizes the concept of magnetic fluid deformation shaped with electromagnetic fields to achieve concave or convex surface and to change the optical focus depth of the mirrors. The free surface of the magnetic fluid is coated with a thin layer of metal-liquid-like film(MELLF) prepared from densely packed silver nanoparticles to enhance the reflectance of the deformable mirror. The experimental results on the fabricated prototype magnetic fluid deformable mirror(MFDM) show that the desired concave/convex surface shape can be controlled precisely with a closed-loop adaptive optical system.展开更多
