Revised Model of the Magnetorhelogical Elastomer Based on Distributed Chains

On the basis of distributed chains, the model of MR elastomer was revised. After the potential energy of a chain was analyzed using the local field method, a special function was used to describe the distribution of chains. Then the MR effect of distributed chains as well as the overall MR effect were studied. Concurrently, the effects of the curing magnetic field and the matrix were incorporated into the model of MR elastomer.
