Abstract

A molecular dynamics model is presented to understand the structural formation of MR fluids by including the thermal motion of the particles. The simulation results indicate that the complexity of the lateral pattern as viewed in the direction of the applied field increases with the rate of the application of external magnetic field. We have also found that the maximum range for attractive interaction (escape distance) for two initially straight chains increases with temperature. These results are relevant to understand the mechanisms and conditions for the formation of labyrinthine and columnar patterns found in MR fluids.
