A phenomenological constitutive model for magnetic shape memory alloys

A thermodynamics-based constitutive model is derived which predicts the nonlinear strain and magnetization response that magnetic shape memory alloys (MSMAs) exhibit when subjected to mechanical and magnetic loads. The model development is conducted on the basis of an extended thermo-magneto-mechani...
