This paper reviews recent developments in four important categories of magnetic materials
that are currently of topical interest: soft magnets, hard magnets, magnetomechanical and …

The piezoelectric d ij coefficient is often regarded in materials science as the most important
figure of merit of piezoelectric performance. For many applications, the piezoelectric g ij …

Writing a book on smart materials bears a certain semblance to purchasing a high-end
laptop—due to rapid advances in the field, it is tempting to postpone the decision every six …

This paper explores a promising novel approach by integrating nonlinear energy sink (NES)
and giant magnetostrictive material (GMM) to realize vibration control and energy …

The classical Duhem model provides a finite-dimensional differential model of hysteresis. In
this paper, we consider rate-independent and rate-dependent semilinear Duhem models …

This paper addresses the modeling of strains generated by magnetostrictive transducers in
response to applied magnetic fields. The measured strains depend on both the rotation of …

Giant magnetostrictive material (GMM) is integrated into a nonlinear energy sink (NES) to
construct a NES-GMM device for vibration control and energy harvesting. The NES-GMM …

Magnetostrictive transducers are being considered for a number of high performance
industrial, automotive, biomedical and Department of Defense applications due to their …

Electronic materials provide the basis for many high tech industries that have changed
rapidly in recent years. In this fully revised and updated second edition, the author discusses …

Starting with the mathematical modeling of classical problems of hysteretic phenomena, the
author provides an insight into the physics of the inverse hysteresis, higher order reversal …
