Abstract
The variations of magnetization and magnetostriction with temperature and stress were investigated through the analysis of the effective field, induced by temperature and stress. A nonlinear magnetostrictive model of giant magnetostrictive materials was proposed. The proposed model can be used to calculate the magnetostrictive characterization of giant magnetostrictive materials in different temperatures and under different stresses. The coupling effects of axial stress, magnetic field, and temperature on the magnetostriction of a Terfenol-D rod were numerically simulated as well as experimentally tested. Comparison between the calculating and experimental results shows that the proposed model can better describe the magneto-thermo-mechanical characteristics of Terfenol-D rod under different temperatures and compressive stress. Therefore, the proposed model possesses an important significance for the design of magnetostrictive devices.
