Microstructural behavior of magnetorheological elastomer undergoing durability evaluation by stress relaxation

Abstract The widespread use of magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) materials in various applications has yet to be limited due to the fact that there are substantial deficiencies in current experimental and theoretical research on its microstructural durability behavior. In this study, MRE composed o...
