The concentration of the magnetic filler within composite materials is equal to 70, 75, and 80 mass\%. The effective lossless permittivity epsilon as well as the dielectric loss tan grow significantly when the magnetic field increases. The permittivity increases and the dielectric loss decreases with increasing filler concentration. In the measurement frequency range between 1 kHz and 200 kHz, the frequency hardly affects the values of epsilon and tan in the absence of a magnetic field. However, both parameters decrease considerably with the growing frequency in a constant magnetic field. The more strongly the magnetic field is applied, the larger the change in permittivity and loss tangent at the same test frequency is observed.

It works in the frequency range from 1 Hz to 500 Hz, where surfactant exchange dynamics governs the relaxation process. The originality of instrument design is the consistent combination of modern measurement technologies with advanced imaging and signal processing algorithms. Key steps on the way to reliable and precise measurements are the excitation of harmonic oscillation of the bubble, phase sensitive evaluation of the pressure response, adjustment and maintenance of the bubble shape to half sphere geometry for compensation of thermal drifts, contour tracing of the bubbles video images, removal of noise and artefacts within the image for improving the reliability of the measurement, and, in particular, a complex trigger scheme for the measurement of the oscillation amplitude, which may vary with frequency as a result of resonances.

However, most of the proposed concepts are not useful for measuring dc magnetic fields, because the conductivity of piezoelectric layers results in a strong decline of the sensor's sensitivity at low frequencies. In this paper, a novel functional principle of magnetoelectric sensors for dc magnetic field measurements is described. The sensor employs the nonlinear effect of voltage harmonic generation in a composite magnetoelectric structure under the simultaneous influence of a strong imposed ac magnetic field and a weak dc magnetic field to be measured. This physical effect arises due to the nonlinear dependence of the magnetostriction in the ferromagnetic layer on the magnetic field. A sensor prototype comprising of a piezoelectric fibre transducer sandwiched between two layers of the amorphous ferromagnetic Metglas (R) alloy was fabricated. The specifications regarding the magnetic field range, frequency characteristics, and noise level were studied experimentally. The prototype showed the responsivity of 2.5 V mT(-1) and permitted the measurement of dc magnetic fields in the range of similar to 10 nT to about 0.4 mT. Although sensor operation is based on the nonlinear effect, the sensor response can be made linear with respect to the measured magnetic field in a broad dynamic range extending over 5 orders of magnitude. The underlying physics is explained through a simplified theory for the proposed sensor. The functionality, differences and advantages of the magnetoelectric sensor compare well with fluxgate magnetometers.

M. Kalita et al., Phys. Rev. E 93, 062503 (2016)]. The planar problem of magnetostriction in an MAE with magnetically soft inclusions in the form of a thin disk (platelet) having the magnetic anisotropy in the plane of this disk is solved analytically. An external magnetic field acts with torques on magnetic filler particles, creates mechanical stresses in the vicinity of inclusions, induces shear strain, and increases the effective shear modulus of these composite materials. It is shown that the largest effect of the magnetic field on the effective shear modulus should be expected in MAEs with soft elastomer matrices, where the shear modulus of the matrix is less than the magnetic anisotropy constant of inclusions. It is derived that the effective shear modulus is nonlinearly dependent on the external magnetic field and approaches the saturation value in magnetic fields exceeding the field of particle anisotropy. It is shown that model calculations of the effective shear modulus correspond to a phenomenological definition of effective elastic moduli and magnetoelastic coupling constants. The obtained theoretical results compare well with known experimental data. Determination of effective elastic coefficients in MAEs and their dependence on magnetic field is discussed. The concentration dependence of the effective shear modulus at higher filler concentrations has been estimated using the method of Pade approximants, which predicts that both the absolute and relative changes of the magnetic-field-dependent effective shear modulus will significantly increase with the growing concentration of filler particles.}, language = {en} } @article{SorokinEckerStepanovetal., author = {Sorokin, Vladislav V. and Ecker, Eva and Stepanov, Gennady V. and Shamonin (Chamonine), Mikhail and Monkman, Gareth J. and Kramarenko, Elena Yu and Khokhlov, Alexei R.}, title = {Experimental study of the magnetic field enhanced Payne effect in magnetorheological elastomers}, series = {Soft Matter}, volume = {10}, journal = {Soft Matter}, number = {43}, publisher = {ROYAL Society of CHEMISTRY}, doi = {10.1039/c4sm01738b}, pages = {8765 -- 8776}, abstract = {The dynamic modulus and the loss factor of magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) of various compositions and anisotropies are studied by dynamic torsion oscillations performed in the absence and in the presence of an external magnetic field.

It is shown that at high temperatures its magnetization curve has the form of a specific hysteresis loop. This hysteresis is attributed to the influence of displacement of magnetized particles in the elastically soft elastomer matrix under the effect of magnetic forces, leading to the change of magnetic interaction between the particles. In this case, there is a maximum in the field dependence of the magnetic susceptibility, the occurrence of which has been associated with the competition between rearrangement of particles, when they are displaced in a magnetic field, and saturation of particles' magnetization. When the MAE is cooled below approximately 225 K, both the magnetic hysteresis and the maximum in the field dependence of the magnetic susceptibility disappear. When the MAE material is cooled below the solidification temperature of the elastomer matrix, the displacements of the magnetic particles during magnetization are blocked by the rigid matrix. The magnetization reversal of the MAE is reversible. This means that the shape of subsequent magnetization loops remains constant and the sample returns into the initial non-magnetized state after the magnetic field is turned off.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{EgersdoerferZeidlerWieseretal., author = {Egersd{\"o}rfer, Stefan and Zeidler, A. and Wieser, A. and Trompier, F. and Monkman, Gareth J. and Shamonin (Chamonine), Mikhail}, title = {A portable accident dosimeter using tooth enamel}, series = {Proceedings of the 7th International Symposium on EPR Dosimetry and Applications and the 2nd International Conference on Biodosimetry held at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, Bethesda, MD, USA, 10-13 July 2006}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 7th International Symposium on EPR Dosimetry and Applications and the 2nd International Conference on Biodosimetry held at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, Bethesda, MD, USA, 10-13 July 2006}, publisher = {Pergamon}, address = {Oxford}, language = {en} } @incollection{ShamoninChamonineKramarenko, author = {Shamonin (Chamonine), Mikhail and Kramarenko, Elena Yu}, title = {Highly Responsive Magnetoactive Elastomers (Chapter 7)}, series = {Novel Magnetic Nanostructures}, booktitle = {Novel Magnetic Nanostructures}, editor = {Domracheva, Natalia and Caporali, Maria and Rentschler, Eva}, publisher = {Elsevier}, isbn = {9780128135945}, doi = {10.1016/B978-0-12-813594-5.00007-2}, pages = {221 -- 245}, abstract = {This chapter introduces composite smart materials known as magnetoactive (MAEs) or magnetorheological elastomers.

In MAEs with soft polymer matrices, the mutual arrangement of inclusions changes in an applied magnetic field. This reorganization of the microstructure leads to unconventionally large changes of electrical and magnetic properties. The obtained theoretical results describe observed phenomena in MAEs well. For the magnetodielectric effect, qualitative agreement between theory and experiment is demonstrated. In the case of magnetic permeability, quantitative agreement is achieved.

A broadband (3 dB bandwidth is larger than 10 Hz at an acceleration amplitude of 9.81 m s(-2)) vibration based energy harvester is proposed for transducing mechanical energy at such low frequencies into electrical energy. The mechanical setup converts low frequency mechanical vibrations into high frequency resonance oscillations of the transducer. This conversion is done by mechanical impacts on two mechanical stoppers. The originality of the presented design is that both low-frequency and high-frequency oscillators are permanently mechanically coupled. In the equivalent mechanical circuit, this coupling is achieved by connecting the ends of the stiff spring to both seismic masses, whereas one seismic mass (collison member) is also attached to the soft spring used as the constitutive element of a low-frequency oscillator. Further, both mechanical oscillators are not realized as conventional cantilever beams.
