- 6. Smart Structures Mohammad Tawfik #WikiCourses Http://WikiCourses.WikiSpaces.com MR Fluids How do they work? • Externally applied magnetic field in a direction normal to the fluid flow direction form dipoles in the iron particles • Magnetic poles start attracting each others to the direction of the field, hence forming chains • The chains then form a skeleton within the fluid, which gains the fluid controllable yield stress
