In this work, a four-parameter fractional derivative viscoelastic model was developed to describe the dynamic shear behaviour of magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) as a function of the matrix, particle content and magnetic field. The material parameters were obtained from experimental data measured with a Physica MCR 501 rheometer from the Anton Paar Company, equipped with a magnetorheological cell. The synthetised isotropic MRE samples were based on room-temperature vulcanising silicone rubber and spherical carbonyl iron powder micro particles as fillers, and seven volumetric particle contents were studied. The influence of particle contents was included in each parameter of the four-parameter fractional derivative model. The dependency of the storage modulus as a function of an external magnetic field ( magnetorheological (MR) effect) was studied, and a dipole-dipole interaction model was used. A new three-dimensional magneto-viscoelastic model was developed to couple the viscoelastic model, the particle-matrix interaction and the magneto-induced modulus model, which predicts the influence of the magnetic field and the particle content in the MR effect of isotropic MREs.
