Question

TodaySprint · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is Option D: IIT Patna. Scientists at IIT Patna have developed a hybrid magneto-rheometer to improve research and performance evaluation of magnetorheological (MR) fluids, which are smart materials. Magnetorheological fluids are smart materials that rapidly increase viscosity when exposed to a magnetic field, enabling controllable force transmission. The hybrid magneto-rheometer developed at IIT Patna has been supported by the Department of Science and Technology (DST). The research team led by Prof. Chiranjit Sarkar developed nano iron powder-based MR fluids and measured their rheological and tribological properties. The newly developed instrument analyses MR fluids under combined compression and shear conditions in the presence and absence of magnetic fields. Magnetorheological fluids are used in applications such as brakes, clutches, shock absorbers, vibration control systems, dampers, actuators and medical devices. The research published in Rheologica Acta highlights the role of advanced material testing technologies in developing energy-efficient adaptive technologies.
