Study Notes
- Magnetostriction is a property of magnetic materials that causes them to change shape during magnetization.
- Ferromagnetic materials have a structure divided into domains, and when a magnetic field is applied, the boundaries between the domains shift and the domains rotate, causing a change in the material's dimensions.
- The magnetostrictive strain varies until it reaches its saturation value, λ.
- Magnetostriction causes energy loss due to frictional heating in susceptible ferromagnetic cores.
- The Villari effect is the change of the magnetic susceptibility of a material when subjected to mechanical stress.
- Magnetostrictive materials can convert magnetic energy into kinetic energy, or the reverse, and are used to build actuators and sensors.
- Cobalt exhibits the largest room-temperature magnetostriction of a pure element at 60 microstrains.
- Terfenol-D is the most commonly used engineering magnetostrictive material.
- Cobalt ferrite, CoFe2O4, is mainly used for its magnetostrictive applications.
- Metglas 2605SC exhibits a very strong ΔE-effect with reductions in the effective Young's modulus up to about 80% in bulk.
