Review on shear thickening fluid and its applications in vibration reduction
Shear thickening fluid (STF) is a nano-smart material that exhibits an instantaneous increase in viscosity when subjected to specific external loads. Notably, its viscosity response does not necessitate external energy input, making it widely applicable in vibration control, energy absorption, and v...

description | Shear thickening fluid (STF) is a nano-smart material that exhibits an instantaneous increase in viscosity when subjected to specific external loads. Notably, its viscosity response does not necessitate external energy input, making it widely applicable in vibration control, energy absorption, and vibration reduction. This paper first presents an introduction and analogy to the evolution of the thickening mechanism of STF. It then discusses factors that influence the rheological properties of STF, including the dispersed phase, dispersion medium, additives, and external environment. Furthermore, it explores various calculation models of STF in engineering applications, considering their advantages, disadvantages, and applicability. The paper later reviews the progress of STF utilization in vibration reduction and energy consumption, specifically focusing on improving mechanical properties in STF sandwich panels. Finally, it delves into the feasibility of STF application in vibration control by detailing the dynamic mechanical properties and applicability of vibration reduction equipment and calculation models based on STF. |
