Abstract

A dynamic, nonlinear model for magnetic induction and strain response of cubic magnetostrictive materials to 3-D dynamic magnetic fields and 3-D stresses is developed. Dynamic eddy current losses and inertial stresses are modeled by coupling Maxwell’s equations to Newton’s second law through a nonlinear constitutive model. The constitutive model is derived from continuum thermodynamics.
