To solve the precision manufacturing of thin-walled irregular-shaped workpiece, the MR fluids flexible fixture was designed and the simulation of device with compression structure was carried out to obtain performance parameters of device for optimizing the device. Then, some experimental test was implemented to verify the feasibility of device. The simulation and experimental results show that the current and coil turns have a great influence on magnetic field, and the shear stress of MR fluids are related with magnetic field and external compression force. The experimental results are in good agreement with simulation ones.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
