A research team of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) has achieved a revolutionary breakthrough in smart materials, successfully developing soft magnetorheological textiles that can flexibly ...

Magnetorheological dampers are adaptive dampers that are filled with a specialised magnetorheological fluid. The characteristics of this fluid can be altered by magnetic fields, generated by ...

Piezoelectric materials sometimes seem magic. Apply a voltage to a piezoelectric material and it will move, as simple as that. The catch of course is that it doesn’t move very much. The piezoelectric ...
