The temperature effect on performance of compressible magnetorheological fluid suspension systems is studied. Magnetorheological fluid is a temperature-dependent material where its compressibility and rheological properties change with temperature. Experimental studies were conducted to explore the temperature effects on the properties of the magnetorheological fluid and the compressible magnetorheological fluid suspension systems. The temperature effect on magnetorheological fluid properties included the bulk modulus, shear yield stress, and viscosity. It was found that the shear yield stress of the magnetorheological fluid remains unchanged within the testing range while both the plastic viscosity, using the Bingham plastic model, and the bulk modulus of the magnetorheological fluid decrease as the temperature of the fluid increases. A theoretical model that incorporates the temperature-dependent properties of magnetorheological fluid was developed to predict behavior of a compressible magnetorheological fluid suspension system. An experimental study was conducted using an annular flow compressible magnetorheological fluid suspension system with varying temperatures, motion frequencies, and magnetic fields. The experimental results are used to verify the theoretical model. Moreover, the stiffness and energy dissipation of the compressible magnetorheological fluid suspension system were obtained, experimentally. The effects of the temperature on performance characteristics of the compressible magnetorheological fluid suspension system were analyzed. It was found that both the stiffness and the energy dissipation decrease with an increase in the temperature of magnetorheological fluid.

This study focuses on the effect of temperature on the performance of compressible magnetorheological fluid dampers (CMRDs). In addition to change of properties in the presence of a magnetic field, magnetorheological fluids (MRFs) are temperature-dependent materials that their compressibility and rheological properties change with temperature, as well. A theoretical model that incorporates the temperature-dependent properties of MRF is developed to predict the behavior of a CMRD. An experimental study is also conducted using an annular flow CMRD with varying temperatures, motion frequencies, and magnetic fields. The experimental results are used to verify the theoretical model. The effect of temperature on the MRF properties, such as, the bulk modulus, yield stress and viscosity, are explored. It is found that the shear yield stress of the MRF remains unchanged within the testing range while both the plastic viscosity, using the Bingham plastic model, and the bulk modulus of the MRF decrease as temperature increases. In addition, it is observed that both the stiffness and the energy dissipation decrease with an increase in temperature.

AbstractThe degree of interactions between fibers and the tendency of fibers to form flocs play an important role in effective unit operation in pulp and paper industry. Mechanical treatments may damage the structure of the fiber cell wall and geometrical properties, and ultimately change the fiber-fiber interactions. In this study, the gel crowding number, compressive and shear yield stress of fibrillated acacia pulps were investigated, and the results showed that the gel crowding number of the refined pulp samples ranged from 8.7 to 10.7, which were much lower than that of un-refined pulps. As the concentration increased, both the compressive yield stress {P_{y}} and shear yield stress {\tau _{y}} of all suspensions increased accordingly, and the yield stress was found to depend on a power law of the crowding number. Moreover, the values of {\tau _{y}}/{P_{y}} were also examined and the variation of {\tau _{y}}/{P_{y}} became largely dependent on the fiber morphology and mass concentration.

ABSTRACTThe pressure filling of anodic alumina templates with molten bismuth has been used to synthesize single crystalline bismuth nanowires with diameters ranging from 7 to 200nm and lengths of 50μm. The nanowires are separated by dissolving the template, and electrodes are affixed to single Bi nanowires on Si substrates. A focused ion beam (FIB) technique is used first to sputter off the oxide from the nanowires with a Ga ion beam and then to deposit Pt without breaking vacuum. The resistivity of a 200nm diameter Bi nanowire is found to be only slightly greater than the bulk value, while preliminary measurements indicate that the resistivity of a 100nm diameter nanowire is significantly larger than bulk. The temperature dependence of the resistivity of a 100nm nanowire is modeled by considering the temperature dependent band parameters and the quantized band structure of the nanowires. This theoretical model is consistent with the experimental results.
