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.
