软铁磁薄板磁弹性屈曲的理论模型

铁磁弹性薄板的磁弹性屈曲问题一直作为电磁——弹性力学相互作用的一个基本模型进行研究，而作用在其磁介质上的磁力计算则是定量理论预测准确与否的关键．到目前为止，文献上已有的理论模型对悬臂铁磁梁式悬臂板在横向磁场中磁弹性屈曲的理论预测值始终高于实验值，有的甚至相差１００％左右．本文基于电磁力计算的微观安培电流模型，严格给出了软铁磁薄板等效横向磁力的宏观计算表达式．在此基础上，建立了电磁——力学相互耦合作用的非线性理论模型．该模型能描述铁磁薄板结构在非均匀横向磁场环境中的磁弹性失稳（或屈曲）．其定量分析采用了有限元法和有限差分法相结合．数值结果显示：本模型给出的磁弹性屈曲的临界磁场值与实验值符合良好．与此同时，文中还对文献中认为较成功的Ｍｏｏｎ－Ｐａｏ模型的基本假设进行了分析．定量结果发现：Ｍｏｏｎ－Ｐａｏ理论模型的基本假设仅在梁式板的长厚比Ｌ／ｈ比较大时（约在２００左右），是可以接受的，而当Ｌ／ｈ较小时，该假设将导致理论值与实验值的较大误差．Ｌ／ｈ比值越小，理论值与实验值的误差越大

A theoretical model of magnetoelastic bucking for soft ferromagnetic thin plates

As an essential model of magnetoelastic interaction between magnetic field and mechanical deformation, the study on magnetoelastic buckling phenomenon of soft ferromagnetic plates in a magnetic environment has been conducted. One of the key steps for the theoretical prediction of the critical magnetic field is how to formulate magnetic force exerted on the magnetized medium. Till today, the theoretical predictions, from theoretical models in publications, of the magnetoelastic buckling of ferromagnetic cantilevered beam-plate in transverse magnetic field are all higher than their experimental data. Sometimes, the discrepancy between them is as high as 100%. In this paper, the macroscope formulation of the magnetic forces is strictly obtained from the microscope Amperion current model. After that, a new theoretical model is established to describe the magnetoelastic buckling phenomenon of ferromagnetic thin plates with geometrically nonlinear deformation in a nonuniform transverse magnetic field. The numerical method for quantitative analysis is employed by combining the finite elemental method for magnetic fields and the finite difference method for deformation of plates. The numerical results obtained from this new theoretical model show that the theoretical predictions of critical values of the buckling magnetic field for the ferromagnetic cantilevered beam-plate are in excellent agreement with their experimental data. By the way, the region of applicability to the Moon-Pao's model, or the couple model, is checked by quantitative results.

Nonlinear stress and deformation analysis of thin current-carrying strip-shells

The problems of nonlinear deformation of a thin current-carrying shell under the coupled action of an unsteady electromagnetic field and a mechanical field are studied. The nonlinear magneto-elastic kinetic equations, the physical equations, the geometric equations, the electrodynamics equations, and the expressions of Lorentz force of a thin current-carrying shell under the action of a coupled field are given. Normal Cauchy form nonlinear differential equations, which include ten basic unknown functions in all, are obtained by the variable replacement method. Using the difference and quasilinearization methods, the nonlinear magneto-elastic equations are reduced to a sequence of quasilinear differential equations, which can be solved by the method of discrete orthogonalization. Numerical solutions for the stresses and deformations in the thin current-carrying strip-shell with two simply supported edges are obtained by considering a specific example. The results that the stresses and deformations in a thin current-carrying strip-shell with two simply supported edges change with variation of the electromagnetic parameters are discussed, through a special case. It is shown that the deformations of the shell can be controlled by changing the electromagnetic parameters Published in Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 43, No. 9, pp. 130–144, September 2007.     

Nonlinear Responses of a Magnetoelastic Beam in a Step-Pulsed Magnetic Field

A theoretical study is carried out on the dynamics of a magnetoelastic beam being in a step-pulsed magnetic field. For this aim, the magnetic potential and elastic energies are determined for the beam and partial differential equations are established according to Hamilton's principle. It is proven that the magnetoelastic beam can give a variety of complex behavior in the case of step-pulsed field excitations. An intermediate regime of two-well chaos is observed. Theoretical findings were found to be in a good agreement with the experimental results for the specific system parameters.

Dispersion equation of magnetoelastic shear waves in irregular monoclinic layer

This paper studies the propagation of horizontally polarized shear waves in an internal magnetoelastic monoclinic stratum with irregularity in lower interface. The stratum is sandwiched between two magnetoelastic monoclinic semi-infinite media. Dispersion equation is obtained in a closed form. In the absence of magnetic field and irregularity of the medium, the dispersion equation agrees with the equation of classical case in three layered media. The effects of magnetic field and size of irregularity on the phase velocity are depicted by means of graphs.     

Changes in the natural frequency of a ferromagnetic rod in a magnetic field due to magnetoelastic interaction

Based on the magnetoelastic generalized variational principle and Hamilton＇s principle, a dynamic theoretical model characterizing the magnetoelastic interaction of a soft ferromagnetic medium in an applied magnetic field is developed in this paper. From the variational manipulation of magnetic scale potential and elastic displacement, all the fundamental equations for the magnetic field and mechanical deformation, as well as the magnetic body force and magnetic traction for describing magnetoelastic interaction are derived. The theoretical model is applied to a ferromagnetic rod vibrating in an applied magnetic field using a perturbation technique and the Galerkin method. The results show that the magnetic field will change the natural frequencies of the ferromagnetic rod by causing a decrease with the bending motion along the applied magnetic field where the magnetoelastic buckling will take place, and by causing an increase when the bending motion of the rod is perpendicular to the field. The prediction by the mode presented in this paper qualitatively agrees with the natural frequency changes of the ferromagnetic rod observed in the experiment.
