Exploring Beyond the Helmholtz Coils for Uniform Magnetic Field Generation with Topology Optimization

Yves Perriard, Adrien Jean-Michel Thabuis, Xiaotao Ren, Minh Trung Duöng

Uniform magnetic fields are desired in a wide range of applications. The most known device achieving such a purpose is the pair of Helmholtz coils. It consists of two identical circular coils, with their main axis aligned and placed at a distance equal to ...

Optimization of Radial Magnetorheological Valves with Constraints of Volume, Pressure Drop and Power Consumption

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Sofia Lydia Ntella, Pooneh Mohaghegh, Minh Trung Duöng

Magnetorheological (MR) fluids are materials that consist of dispersions of ferromagnetic particles in a liquid carrier medium. Their tunable rheological properties under the application of an external magnetic field classify them in the category of smart ...

Design optimization of Miniature Magnetorheological Valves with Self-Sensing Capabilities Used for a Wearable Medical Application

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Sofia Lydia Ntella, Minh Trung Duöng

Magnetorheological (MR) fluids are materials characterized as “intelligent” since their rheological properties may be controlled by the excitation of an external magnetic field. The application of the latter brings the fluid from a liquid to a semi-solid s ...
