Graduate Research Assistant, Advisor: Prof. Stephen D. Jacobs 2006-present

. Investigated mechanical and chemical interactions between

magnetorheological (MR) fluid and optical glasses/ceramics for a better

understanding of material removal mechanisms and surface smoothing of

optical glasses and hard ceramics using MRF. Tested frictional forces

with a modified dual load cell as a function of finishing machine

parameters, abrasive concentration, fluid pH and material properties for

MRF of glasses and ceramics for the first time, and established a

material removal model for MRF process

. Formulated metal oxide-coated carbonyl iron particle MR fluid with

enhanced corrosion resistance and stability. Performed rheological,

studies regarding surface charge of coated particles, types and

concentrations of polyelectrolyte dispersants and fluid pH

. Developed nonaqueous MR fluid with high solid concentration intended for

studying mechanics exclusively in MRF. Chemistry introduced by adding

aqueous chemical additives (hydrogen peroxide, deionized water, acids and

bases), and studied the viscosity of the fluid as a function of additive

composition, temperature and aging duration

. Analyzed and modeled experimental data with Matlab and Excel

. Prepared over 25 technical reports summarizing experiments on MRF and

related work
