The advancement of braking systems has been a critical area of research in automotive and industrial engineering, driven by the need for enhanced safety, performance, and efficiency. One of the main limitations of modern braking systems is the wear of its components and the use of consumables, such as pads, which not only entail a economic issue but also an environmental concern, as some of the parts may be made of contaminating elements which may disperse on the air as a during operational wear. The emergence of magnetorheological fluids (MR-fluids, or MRF) has opened new opportunities for tackling these issues. These smart materials, which can rapidly change their viscosity in response to an applied magnetic field, offer the potential for adaptive braking systems that can provide precise control and improved performance under varying conditions, as well as having limited to no wear which proves to be a defining factor in the future of technology.
