The Magnetoviscoelastic Response of Elastomer Composites Consisting of Ferrous Particles Embedded in a Polymer Matrix

TL;DR: In this paper, a quasi-static dipole model is presented to examine the magnetoviscoelastic effect of these elastomer composites and the model is semi-empirical in that it may be fit to experimental data over a broad range of applied magnetic fields.

Model of magnetorheological elastomers

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used finite element analysis to show that the shear modulus of typical elastomers is about 50% of the zero-field modulus at saturation and the optimum particle volume fraction for the largest fractional change in modulus is predicted to be 27%.
