Magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) are a class of smart materials with rubber-like qualities, demonstrating revertible magnetic field-dependent viscoelastic properties, which makes them an ideal candidate for development of the next generation of adaptive vibration absorbers. This research study aims at the development of a finite element model using mi ...

This study aims to enhance and tune wave-propagation properties (Bandgaps) of periodic structures featuring magnetorheological elastomers (MREs). For this purpose, first, a basic model of periodic structures (square unit cell with cross-shaped arms), which does not possess noise filtering properties in the conventional configuration, is considered. A pass ...
