Properties and Characterisation of Magneto-Rheological Materials under Rotating Magnetic Field Excitation

通过所提出的理论和实验研究，将观察到磁流变材料在各种矢量磁化作用下的新的电磁-机械现象。在深入了解复杂的矢量磁流变机理的基础上，为新型阻尼器的设计和分析建立了精确的耦合模型。这些成果将极大地提高澳大利亚工业在智能结构方面的设计能力，即使用新型阻尼器来减少有害振动并保护车辆、建筑和桥梁中的人员。这将帮助澳大利亚人生活在更安全、更健康的环境中，并可在全国范围内每年节省数十亿美元的治疗、康复和保险索赔费用。

Through the proposed theoretical and experimental studies, new electro-magneto-mechanical phenomena of the MR materials under various vectorial magnetisations will be observed. Based on the in-depth understanding of the complex vectorial magneto-rheological mechanisms, an accurate coupled model will be developed for design and analysis of novel dampers. These outcomes will greatly enhance the design capacity of Australian industry in smart structures, i.e. using novel dampers to reduce harmful vibrations and protect people in vehicles, buildings, and bridges. This will help Australians to live in a safer and healthier environment, and could save billions of dollars per year nationwide for treatment, recovery, and insurance claims.
