Description
The force required to shear one-, two- and three-chain clusters of 230 μm dia. glass beads in silicone oil was measured. In each case the shear force was proportional to the shear strain, the proportionality constant increasing with electrical field and number n of chains in the cluster. The derived shear modulus G also increased with n. An extrapolation of the present results suggests that a cluster of 4--5 chains would give the stress enhancement factor of 10--20 observed for real ER fluids
