Measurement of field-dependence elastic modulus of iron-gallium alloy using tensile test

  • 1. University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland 20742 (United States)

Description

An experimental approach is used to identify Galfenol material properties under dc magnetic bias fields. Dog-bone-shaped specimens of single crystal Fe100-xGax, where 18.6≤x≤33.2, underwent tensile testing along two crystallographic axis orientations, [110] and [100]. Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio sensitivity to magnetic fields and stoichiometry are investigated. Data are presented that demonstrate the dependence of these properties on applied magnetic-field levels and provide a substantial assessment of the trends in material properties for performance of alloys of different stoichiometries under varied operating conditions
