“…MREA can quickly change its damping characteristics after applying current or voltage, so it can quickly adjust its load-stroke profile and has the potential to accommodate to varying working conditions. So far, MREAs have been installed in many equipment used in shock environments, such as landing gear systems (Batterbee et al, 2007; Choi et al, 2016; Mikułowski and Jankowski, 2009), vehicle suspension systems (Bai et al, 2013; Hou et al, 2019), helicopter seat systems (Choi and Wereley, 2005; Hiemenz et al, 2007), recoil system of gun structures (Ahmadian and Poynor, 2001; Zheng et al, 2016), and other systems (Ahmadian and Norris, 2008). MREAs are also applied in shock isolation mounts and has a good performance (Eem et al, 2019; Singh and Wereley, 2013).…”
