Morphological Effects of Strain Localization in the Elastic Region of Magnetorheological Elastomers

Strain localization is a significant issue that poses interesting research challenges in viscoelastic materials because it is difficult to accurately predict the damage evolution behavior. Over time, the damage mechanism in the amorphous structure of viscoelastic materials leads to subsequent locali...

description Strain localization is a significant issue that poses interesting research challenges in viscoelastic materials because it is difficult to accurately predict the damage evolution behavior. Over time, the damage mechanism in the amorphous structure of viscoelastic materials leads to subsequent localization into a shear band, gradually jeopardizing the materials’ elastic sustainability. The primary goal of this study is to further understand the morphological effects and the role of shear bands in viscoelastic materials precipitated by strain localization. The current study aims to consolidate the various failure mechanisms of a sample and its geometry (surface-to-volume ratio) used in torsional testing, as well as to understand their effects on stress relaxation durability performance. A torsional shear load stress relaxation durability test was performed within the elastic region on an isotropic viscoelastic sample made of silicon rubber and a 70% weight fraction of micron-sized carbonyl iron particles. Degradation was caused by a shear band of localized plasticity that developed microscopically due to stress relaxation durability. The failure pattern deteriorated as the surface-to-volume ratio decreased. A field-emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and a tapping-mode atomic force microscope (AFM) were used for further observation and investigation of the sample. After at least 7500 cycles of continuous shearing, the elastic sustainability of the viscoelastic materials microstructurally degraded, as indicated by a decline in stress performance over time. Factors influencing the formation of shear bands were observed in postmortem, which was affected by simple micromanipulation of the sample geometry, making it applicable for practical implementation to accommodate any desired performance and micromechanical design applications.
