| Popis: | The isotropic magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) containing three different contents of carbonyl iron particles (CIPs) based on silicone rubber were prepared, and their quasi-static compression properties under various magnetic fields were characterized by a material testing machine with specialized electromagnet. The magneto-induced actuation stress at zero strain condition as well as the deformation stress during compression process of MREs were tested. According to the magnetization model and demagnetizing energy theory, a magneto-induced actuation model of isotropic MREs was proposed. Meanwhile, a magneto-hyperelastic model was established for calculating the magnetic field- and strain-dependent deformation stress of MREs via combining the Neo–Hookean model, the magnetization model, and the magnetic dipole theory. Therefore, a new constitutive model was established to describe compression properties of isotropic MREs by considering the magneto-induced actuation and the magneto-hyperelastic behaviors. Finally, the effect of CIP content and model applicability were analyzed. It is verified that the developed compression model was able to exactly predict the compression properties of isotropic MREs with various CIP contents over the magnetic field range varying from zero field to saturation field by adopting a set of unified model parameters. |
