“…The storage shear modulus (G) of the ppp-1 suspension (15 wt%) showed plateau behavior over elastic behavior (7,17). The amplitude and phase angle of field, G decreased somewhat, showing a transition to nonlinear region due to the chain breaking (17). The general shape of GЉ curves was similar, but the values were greatly enhanced in the range of electric field measured (Fig.…”

“…When the conductivity of particle is increased, the dynamic yield stress is also enhanced compared with the value of the undoped one. However, when the particle conductivity is increased further, as in the case of ppp-4 and 5, yield stresses dynamic yield stresses of the ppp-2 suspension (15 wt%) the stress are dependent upon the applied electric field strength (17,18). The response becomes, however, nonlindid not diminish but increased somewhat with temperature in the range of an electric field strength of E Å 0.5-3.0 kV/ ear with increasing strain amplitude due to the break of chain structure induced by the electric field.…”

“…Gamota, et al [11] proposed a model based on the Fourier analysis of ER fluid stress response for different cases. The experimental studies upon which this model was based provided valuable insight into the dynamic behavior of these materials [12,13]. We proposed a nonlinear viscoelastic-plastic model which described the pre-yield and the post-yield characteristics of an ER fluid using a nonlinear network of linear viscoelastic and viscous elements [14,15].…”
A combined theoretical and experimental study of electrorheological (ER) fluid dampers is presented here. A moving electrode ER damper was built and tested for its dynamic characteristics for different electric field strengths and varying displacement amplitudes. Based upon the phenomenology observed in the experimental results, an augmented nonlinear model is proposed to describe the dynamic characteristics of the damper. The six model parameters are estimated from the experimental hysteresis data. The force vs. displacement and force vs. velocity hysteresis cycles are then reconstructed using these estimated parameters. The results show that the model captures the nonlinear damper behavior quite accurately. The importance ofthe various components in the model is illustrated.
