Q

Definition of “Magnetorheological Fluids (MR)”

A

A fluid in a carrier fluid, usually a type of oil. When subjected to a magnetic field, the fluid greatly increases its apparent viscosity, to the point of becoming a viscoelastic solid.

Q

Pros & Cons of “Piezoelectric Materials (PEC)”

A

perfect for applications that require precise accuracy, such as the movement of a motor but have limited energy outputs, and therefore are potentially cost-prohibitive to feasibly use in any large-scale energy harvesting application

Q

Pros & Cons of “Electrostrictive Materials (ESP)”

A

Need cryogenic temperatures and large magnetic fields(Inefficient) but do not need poling or pre-process to be fully operational

17
Q

Pros & Cons of “Electrorheological Fluids (ERF)”

A

fast response and easy interface between electrical and mechanical input–output but problem is that ER fluids are suspensions, hence in time they tend to settle out

18
Q

Pros & Cons of “Magnetorheological Fluids (MR)”

A

the yield stress of MR fluids is variable which makes it easy to manipulate but a con is the phenomenon called in-use-thickening (IUT), where the fluid is permanently damaged after long-term operation

19
Q

Definition of Shape-Memory Materials

A

featured by the ability to recover their original shape from a significant and seemingly plastic deformation when a particular stimulus is applied

21
Q

Definition & Examples of Smart Glasses

A

Electrochromic glasses (EC) are glasses that change their transmissivity upon an electrical signal

Susupended-particle- sandwiches suspended, rod-shaped particles between two
transparent layers, which is also opaque until it encounters a current

22
Q

Definition & Examples of Fiber Optical Sensors

A

light from a laser or any superluminescent source is transmitted via an optical fiber, experiences changes in its parameters either in the optical fiber or fiber Bragg gratings and reaches a detector which measures these changes.
