A lot of research is going on to utilize their potential in various engineering application which make prove useful for common people. A wide variety of smart materials exist which includes piezoelectric materials, magneto rheological materials (MR), electro rheological materials (ER), shape memory alloys, etc. in both ER and MR fluids, the change in fluid properties like viscosity can be manipulated by varying an electric supply, by varying the strength of the electric field, the particle change can be aligned in between the electrodes. The automotive and aerospace industries have for the first time used these smart materials for various application. These papers highlights the application of smart materials.[1] Keywords : Smart materials, Piezoelectric, Electro rheological and magneto rheological fluids.
