Extract

The influence of electric fields on the deformation and flow properties of materials has been a subject of interest for many years. Recently, there has been renewed interest in a particular branch of these electric field effects—the electrorheological (ER) effect. The ER effect is also known as the Winslow effect after its founder Willis Winslow. Winslow observed that applying strong electric fields to nonaqueous silica suspensions activated with a small amount of water caused rapid solidification of the originally fluid material. This type of behavior was seen as instrumental in the development of high-speed valves, reactive damping systems, and a host of other applications.
