He found that shear stress of their ER fluid consisted of oxidized polyacrylonitrile did not change monotonically with the change of dielectric loss factor and electric permittivity, even in given series of samples.
The apparatus for the complex electric permittivity measurement up to 4 GHz consisted of a voltage supply (VS), a signal generator (SG), a modulator (M), an attenuator (A), a low-pass filter (LPF), an coaxial slotted line (CSL), a standing wave indicator (SWI), and a sample holder (SH).
