Magnetic field induced strain assisted by stress in Ni-Fe-GaCo single crystals
Ferromagnetic shape memory alloys (FSMA) have the possibility to induced a strain by applying a magnetic field. The main advantage of the FSMA is that the strain cycling frequency is two orders of magnitude higher than coventional shape memory alloys. The best alloy showing this effect is the Ni-Mn-...
