Design, processing and characterization of mechanically alloyed galfenol
& lightly rare-earth doped FeGa alloys as smart materials for actuators and
transducers
Abstract:Smart materials find a wide range of application areas due to their varied response to external stimuli [1][2][3]. The different areas of application can be in our day to day life, aerospace, civil engineering applications [4], and mechatronics [5] to name a few.Magnetostrictive materials are a class of smart materials that can convert energy between the magnetic and elastic states [2,6]. Galfenol is a magnetostrictive alloy comprised primarily of the elements iron (Fe) and gallium (Ga) [7]. Galfenol exhibits … Show more
