Materials that switch from liquid‐like to solid‐like upon application of an electric field are
termed electrorheological fluids. The general features and preparation of these smart …

The objective of this article is to give a review of electrorheological (ER) suspensions whose
rheological properties can abruptly change under an external electric field. Attention is given …

Non-aqueous emulsions are peculiar cases of emulsions, however with a much broader
range of applications than the traditional oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions. A quasi …

The objective of this work is to study the dynamic behavior of a rotor supported by a new
hydrostatic journal bearing, and fed with a negative electrorheological (NER) fluid. The …

In the present article, the rheological responses of oil-in-oil emulsions in a dc electric field
were investigated experimentally. Specifically, the dispersed phase of the emulsions …

Numerical simulations are used to examine the effect of an electrostatic field on an emulsion
of drops in a channel. The leaky-dielectric theory of Taylor is used to find the electric field …

Direct numerical simulation is used to examine the rheological properties of an emulsion of
leaky dielectric fluids when an electric field is applied to the system. The emulsion consisting …

The effect of electrostatic forces on the distribution of drops in turbulent channel flows is
examined by direct numerical simulations. The droplets and suspending fluid are assumed …

An investigation is described on the electric-field-induced structures in colloidal dispersions.
Both rheological determinations and direct microscopic observations are used with that aim …

Electrorheological (ER) effects of alginic acid and alginate salts (Na+ alginate, NH4+
alginate, and Ca2+ alginate) dispersed suspensions were investigated under DC electric …
