Behavior of Magnetic Shape Memory Alloys

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Linear and Non-linear Mechanical Behavior of Solid Materials

Abstract

The main advantage of magnetic shape memory alloys (MSMAs) over conventional shape memory alloys (SMAs) lies in the possibility for their actuation not only by stress or temperature but also by a magnetic field. This chapter is mainly devoted to the modeling of the thermo-magneto-mechanical behavior of single crystals under compressive loading (considering their fragility) and also under a magnetic field.
