Abstract
The current contribution is concerned with the development of novel constitutive equations for anisotropic magnetoactive elastomers (MAEs). A hyperelastic material model for an incompressible magnetoelastic medium representing transversely isotropic MAEs has been developed to investigate their response behavior in the presence of the applied magnetic field while undergoing finite deformation. Transversely isotropic MAE samples in circular cylindrical geometry with 15% iron particle volume fraction are then fabricated and experimentally tested to measure their permeability and torque–twist response. The experimental results have then been effectively utilized to identify the constant material parameters in the proposed material model. Finally, the accuracy and validity of the proposed constitutive equations are demonstrated through the comparison of the simulation and experimental results.
