Abstract In this investigation, a new silicone rubber-based MRE material was
prepared to be used as a forming medium in manufacturing thin-walled complex-
shaped Ni-based tubes through the bulging process. Thus, it is significant to
investigate the effect of magnetic field intensity, magnetic field loading time, and
angle on the mechanical properties of the prepared MRE material during the curing
process. The obtained results showed that increasing the magnetic field intensity
during the curing process can improve the orientation of the chain structure in the
elastomer matrix effectively. However, its mechanical properties are the best… More >
