description

A numerical method is developed with aim to simulate the magnetorheological (MR) suspension taking into account realistic magnetic forces. The MR suspension is described by spherical particles with nonlinear magnetic properties suspended in a shear flow. Inertia effects, Brownian motion and buoyancy forces are neglected. The hydrodynamic interaction between close particles is taken into account approximately. Results of some test simulations are presented.
