AbstractAbstractIIIICHARACTERISTICS ANALYSIS OF VIBRATION CONTROL OF A MRE SANDWICH BEAMABSTRACTAs a new branch of the magnetorheological materials, magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) is formed by the polymer(such as silicon rubber) and ferromagnetic particles under the external magnetic field field. MRE is the solid simulation of magnetorheological fluid (MRF), has both the advantages of MRF and elastomers, but also overcomes the MRE’s shortcomings, such like easily settlement and poor stability. As MRE is more stable than MRF, it has a broad application prospects in the semi-active control of structural vibration. So far, there are many scholars of MRE as material prepatation, theoretical modeling and engineering applications. However, the study that MRE applied to the flexible beam or plate vibration suppression is not mature.In this paper, the vibration characteristics of the MRE sandwich beam is studied. The transverse motion equations of MRE sandwich beam is derived with Mead-Markus model, and the sandwich beam vibration chatacteristics under uniform magnetic field is studied. Subsequently extends the MM model, and the transverse vibration model of MRE sandwich beam under non-uniform magnetic field is established. Then the work that the vibration characteristics of the sandewich beam with the different boundary conditions is done.After the completion of the theoretical analysis, simulation analysis using ANSYS finite element is studied. The results show that the theory and simulation results are in good agreement, and the natural frequency of the MRE sandwich beam has a certain adjustable range under the external magnetic field. It is showed that the physical properties of MRE can be changed quickly, conreollably and reversibly under the varying external magnetic fields.Last, a three-layer sandwich beam with an aluminum face sheet and a MRE core is designed. The experiment test rig is set up to investigate the vibration response of the MRE sanwich beam under n
