ABSTRACT. This paper is concerned with the torsional vibrations of a nonhomogeneous magnetostrictive elastic cylinder. The cylinder is subjected to the action of a circumferential magnetic field produced by an axial current of constant density and the deformation of a magnetostrictive cylinder is produced by a constant longitudinal magnetic field. The frequency equation is determined, and the d...

The inverse magnetostrictive effect is an effective property for energy harvesting; the material needs to have large magnetostriction and ease of mass production. Fe-Co alloys being magnetostrictive materials have favorable characteristics which are high strength, ductility, and excellent workability, allowing easy fabrication of Fe-Co alloy fibers. In this study, we fabricated magnetostrictive...

Powder metallurgic giant magnetostrictive composite materials (GMM) which are special kind of metallic compounds have a wide range of application possibilities. These materials have a homogeneous structure, low internal stresses and low cost, which make them able to create magnetostrictive elements. Therefore, GMM can be used to develop positioning as well as vibration actuators with quick resp...

Among magnetoelectric (ME) heterostructures, ME laminates of the type Metglas-like/PVDF (magnetostrictive+piezoelectric constituents) have shown the highest induced ME voltages, usually detected at the magnetoelastic resonance of the magnetostrictive constituent. This ME coupling happens because of the high cross-correlation coupling between magnetostrictive and piezoelectric material, and is u...

Omar Farhan Aljanaideh Concordia University, 2013 Smart material actuators are increasingly being explored for various micropositioning applications. Magnetostrictive actuators, in particular, are considered attractive for micro/nano positioning and high speed precision machining due to their high energy density, resolution and force capacity. The magnetostrictive actuators, similar to other sm...

Magnetoelectric (ME) interaction in magnetostrictive-piezoelectric multiferroic structures consists in inducing the electric field across the structure in an applied magnetic field and is a product property of magnetostriction and piezoelectricity in components. ME voltage coefficient that is the ratio of induced electric field to applied magnetic field is the key parameter of ME coupling stren...

A nonlinear couple modeling of magnetostrictive cantilever is built by combining Gibb’s free energy formulation with the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. The Gibb’s free energy corresponding to different orientations in 3D space can be expressed in terms of their direction cosines, the stress at a given point can be described by classical theory. The magnetomechanical bending experimental setup is ...

The study of magnetostrictive material in laminated plate under thermal vibration is calculated by using the generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) method. The YNS shear deformation effect is included in the time dependent of displacement field. In the thermoelastic stress-strain relations that containing the linear temperature rise and the magnetostrictive coupling terms with velocity feedb...

Acoustic wave devices have gained enormous interest for sensor applications. In the current practice, the surface acoustic waves are usually generated and measured by piezoelectric transducers. In this work, however, we propose to generate the acoustic waves by using a magnetostrictive transducer using magneticstrictive nickel strip gratings and a sensing coil. The coil encircling the gratings ...

Techniques for modeling hysteresis and material nonlinearities in magnetostrictive materials are presented. Hys-teresis in these materials is due to both the driving magnetic eld and stress relations within the material and is signiicant throughout most of the drive range of the material. Two characterizations are presented here. The rst model is posed in terms of Preisach operators and is pure...
