Talk:Magnetorheological fluid

What is "anisentropic" ?

Yeah, I messed that up, I meant "anisotropic", which I think someone has changed. What has happened to the pictures and equations???! WillBecker 14:38, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

In fact I will put all the pictures and eqns back in unless anyone has got a decent reason why they took em out? I can't see how it is helping the article. WillBecker 14:43, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

I think at the very least the modes diagrams and perhaps the typical shear stress vs. shear rate graph with the Bingham Plastic fit lines and the apparent yield stress labeled should be readded, as well as equations for the Bingham model and a short explaination of why we can use such a simple model. It would also be nice to see the more precise fluid models (e.g. Phillip's equations and Carlson's equations) listed and explained, but that may be more advanced than necessary for most readers. But then again as long as the advanced models are separated clearly and cleanly from the basic information then I think it should be included. Also I think a distinction needs to be made between a ferrofluid and a magnetorheological fluid, with necessary links. Josh.karli 03:11, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
