On Magnetorheologic Elastomers for Vibration Isolation, Damping, and Stress Reduction in Mass-varying Structures

This article considers two devices based on a magnetorheological elastomer (MRE): an MRE isolator under a frequency-varying harmonic excitation and a MRE Dynamic Vibration Absorber (DVA) mounted on a frequency-varying structure under a random excitation. In the first case, it is shown that the comma... View More
