Forces and torques on rigid inclusions in an elastic environment: resulting matrix-mediated interactions, displacements, and rotations
Mate Puljiz, Andreas M. Menzel
Embedding rigid inclusions into elastic matrix materials is a procedure of high practical relevance, for instance for the fabrication of elastic composite materials. We theoretical…
Superelastic stress-strain behavior in ferrogels of different types of magneto-elastic coupling
Peet Cremer, Hartmut Löwen, Andreas M. Menzel
Colloidal magnetic particles embedded in an elastic polymer matrix constitute a smart material called ferrogel. It responds to an applied external magnetic field by changes in elas…
Hydrodynamic description of (visco)elastic composite materials and relative strains as a new macroscopic variable
Andreas M. Menzel
One possibility to adjust material properties to a specific need is to embed units of one substance into a matrix of another substance. Even materials that are readily tunable duri…
Dynamic Elastic Moduli in Magnetic Gels: Normal Modes and Linear Response
Giorgio Pessot, Hartmut Löwen, Andreas M. Menzel
In the perspective of developing smart hybrid materials with customized features, ferrogels and magnetorheological elastomers allow a synergy of elasticity and magnetism. The inter…
Thermophoretically induced large-scale deformations around microscopic heat centers
Mate Puljiz, Michael Orlishausen, Werner Köhler +1
Selectively heating a microscopic colloidal particle embedded in a soft elastic matrix is a situation of high practical relevance. For instance, during hyperthermic cancer treatmen…
