Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Advanced magnetic materials have emerged as pivotal components in various high-tech applications, driven by their unique magnetic properties and functionalities. These materials, which include soft magnetic materials, hard magnetic materials, and multifunctional composites, play critical roles in areas such as data storage, electromagnetic devices, and renewable energy technologies. Soft magnetic materials, characterized by their high permeability and low coercivity, are essential in transformers and inductors, enabling efficient energy conversion. On the other hand, hard magnetic materials, known for their high coercivity, are widely used in permanent magnets for motors and generators, contributing to advancements in electric vehicles and wind energy systems. Furthermore, developing multifunctional magnetic composites has opened new avenues in biomedical applications, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and targeted drug delivery systems. Recent innovations in nanostructuring and doping techniques have significantly enhanced the performance and versatility of these materials. As research continues to evolve, integrating advanced magnetic materials into emerging technologies promises to drive progress in electronics and healthcare, ultimately leading to more efficient and sustainable solutions in our daily lives.

This study presents a Multi-layer Quasi-Zero-Stiffness (ML-QZS) vibration isolation platform for variable loads in large-amplitude and low-frequency dynamic environments. In one isolation mount of the proposed ML-QZS isolation platform, Multi-layer permanent magnets are constructed to generate discontinuous Multi-layer negative-stiffness regions. The first design criterion is to achieve the low-frequency and wide-amplitude vibration isolation range for different loads. The second design criterion is carried out for the dynamic performances of transient and steady states. Since both structural design and damping determine vibration transient time and the displacement transmissibility, which often exhibit contradictions depending on system parameters, a bi-objective Pareto optimization criterion is proposed to balance the vibration transients between different layers while ensuring significant isolation effectiveness in one layer. Finally, the relevant experimental prototype is constructed, and the results verify the design principle of Multi-layer double magnetic ring construction and optimization criterions for structural parameters and damping coefficients. This study provides an advanced nonlinear isolation platform with a wide QZS range for different loads, and the optimization method to coordinate the vibration performances, which provides important theoretical and experimental guidance for the design and realization of isolation platforms in practical engineering applications for large-amplitude and low-frequency dynamic environments.
