Fundamental magnetoelastic waves in a thin conductive magnetostrictive slab.

Dynamic Actuation and Quadratic Magnetoelastic Coupling of Thin Magnetostrictive Shells

Smart adaptive structures and structronic systems have been increasingly investigated and developed in the last two decades. Although smart structures made of piezoelectrics, shape-memory materials, electrostrictive materials, and electro-/magnetorheological fluids have been evaluated extensively, studies of magnetostrictive continua, especially generic mathematical model(s), are still relative...

Modeling magnetostrictive microstructure under loading : and, Simulation of magnetoelastic systems

Jhe simulation of a magnetoelastic system subjected to magnetic fieldloading gives rise to hysteresis. Examples related to Terfenol-D are presented and somemethods of analysis discussed.

A model for a thin magnetostrictive actuator

In this paper, we propose a model for dynamic magnetostrictive hysteresis in a thin rod actuator. We derive two equations that represent magnetic and mechanical dynamic equilibrium. Our model results from an application of the energy balance principle. It is a dynamic model as it accounts for inertial effects and mechanical dissipation as the actuator deforms, and also eddycurrent losses in the...

Thin Film Limits in Magnetoelastic Interactions

Surface waves and volume waves in a photonic crystal slab.

The volume and surface waves supported by a 2D PC slab with termination condition are systematically studied using the rigorous modematching method incorporating the Floquet's solutions. It is interesting to observe that the surface waves are caused by the perturbation of the PC-slab modes from the imposed termination condition, enabling the transition from volume wave to surface wave. The pert...
