Applications of magnetostrictive materials, such as sensors and energy-harvesting devices, generally involve the use dynamic deformation, i.e., piezomagnetic effect, induced by an exciting magnetic field H ac . However, this effect is rarely measured directly but commonly approximated strain der...

The free vibration analysis of the homogenous magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) plate based on a refined first-order shear deformation theory and moving Kriging meshfree method is presented in this paper. (RFSDT) only includes four variables reduces one variable when comparing to original theory. MEE materials which are coupled between piezoelectric piezomagnetic effects, combined BaTiO3 CoFe2O4 ma...

The dependence of the resonant direct magnetoelectric effect on temperature is studied experimentally in planar composite structures. Samples of rectangular shapes with dimensions of 5 mm × 20 mm employed ferromagnetic layers of either an amorphous (metallic glass) alloy or nickel with a thickness of 20-200 μm and piezoelectric layers of single crystalline langatate material or lead zirconate t...

A new class of hybrid/mixed finite elements, denoted “HMFEM-C”, has been developed for modeling magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) materials. These elements are based on assuming independent strain-fields, electric and magnetic fields, and collocating them with the strain-fields, electric and magnetic fields derived from the primal variables (mechanical displacements, electric and magnetic potential...
