The alloy exhibits a phenomenon called "giant magnetostriction," an amplified change in dimensions when placed in a sufficiently strong magnetic field. The effect is analogous to the more familiar ...

Magnetostriction is an effect in which a material changes its size and shape in an external magnetic field. This property is actively used in various devices, including magnetostrictive actuators.

The alloy exhibits a phenomenon called "giant magnetostriction," an amplified change in dimensions when placed in a sufficiently strong magnetic field. The effect is analogous to the more familiar ...

[Florian B.]’s sensor uses a side effect of magnetostriction known as the Wiedenmann effect, which causes a wire to experience a twisting force if a current pulse is applied to it in a magnetic ...

Magnetostriction is the property that causes ... commonly called to Villari Effect. New material developments are also underway. Researchers are now trying to improve the strain and efficiency ...

Now that’s uncanny. Two days before [Ben Krasnow] of the Applied Science YouTube blog posted this video on anti-theft tags that use magnetostriction, we wrote a blog post about a firm that’s ...

The alloy exhibits giant magnetostriction, an amplified change in dimensions when placed in a strong magnetic field. The effect is similar to the piezoelectric effect that causes certain materials ...
