Propagation of SH waves in an irregular monoclinic crustal layer

The present paper discusses the dispersion equation for SH waves in a monoclinic layer over a semi-infinite elastic medium with an irregularity. In the absence of the irregularity, the dispersion equation reduces to standard dispersion equation for SH waves in a monoclinic layer over an isotropic semi-infinite medium. The dispersion curves for different size of the irregularity are computed and compared for the half-space without any irregularity. It can be seen that the phase velocity is strongly influenced by the wave number and the depth of the irregularity.

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.     

Perturbed magnetic field of an infinite plate with a centered crack

Deforming a cracked magnetoelastic body in a magnetic field induces a perturbed magnetic field around the crack. The quantitative relationship between this perturbed field and the stress around the crack is crucial in developing a new generation of magnetism-based nondestructive testing technologies. In this paper, an analytical expression of the perturbed magnetic field induced by structural deforma- tion of an infinite ferromagnetic elastic plate containing a centered crack in a weak external magnetic field is obtained by using the linearized magnetoelastic theory and Fourier transform methods. The main finding is that the perturbed magnetic field intensity is proportional to the applied tensile stress, and is dominated by the displacement gradient on the boundary of the magnetoelastic solid. The tangential component of the perturbed magnetic-field intensity near the crack exhibits an antisymmetric distribution along the crack that reverses its direction sharply across its two faces, while the normal component shows a symmetric distribution along the crack with singular points at the crack tips.     

软铁磁薄板磁弹性屈曲的理论模型

Incremental Magnetoelastic Deformations,with Application to Surface Instability

In this paper the equations governing the deformations of infinitesimal (incremental) disturbances superimposed on finite static deformation fields involving magnetic and elastic interactions are presented. The coupling between the equations of mechanical equilibrium and Maxwell’s equations complicates the incremental formulation and particular attention is therefore paid to the derivation of the incremental equations, of the tensors of magnetoelastic moduli and of the incremental boundary conditions at a magnetoelastic/vacuum interface. The problem of surface stability for a solid half-space under plane strain with a magnetic field normal to its surface is used to illustrate the general results. The analysis involved leads to the simultaneous resolution of a bicubic and vanishing of a 7×7 determinant. In order to provide specific demonstration of the effect of the magnetic field, the material model is specialized to that of a “magnetoelastic Mooney–Rivlin solid”. Depending on the magnitudes of the magnetic field and the magnetoelastic coupling parameters, this shows that the half-space may become either more stable or less stable than in the absence of a magnetic field.      

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.

Use of magnetorheological elastomer in an adaptive sandwich beam with conductive skins. Part I: Magnetoelastic loads in conductive skins

In this study, the magnetoelastic loads for a vibrating conductive beam exposed perpendicularly to an applied steady magnetic field are addressed analytically by considering the effect of finite dimensions. The dynamic equation of such vibrating beam is presented and a simply supported conductive beam is simulated. The simulation indicates that the magnetoelastic loads affect the dynamic properties of the vibrating beam significantly only when the thickness of the beam is extremely small. This work is the basis for investigating and analyzing the field-controllable dynamic properties of a sandwich beam composed of conductive thin outer skins and a magnetorheological elastomer core, which will be presented in the second part of this research.

On a bounded elliptic elastic inclusion in plane magnetoelasticity

The problem of an elliptic inclusion embedded in an infinite matrix subjected to a uniform magnetic induction is considered in this paper. Basing upon the two-dimensional magnetoelastic formulation, the technique of conformal mapping, and the method of analytical continuation, a general solution of magnetic field quantities and the magnetoelastic stresses are obtained for both the matrix and the inclusion. Comparison is made with several special cases of which the analytical solutions can be found in the literature, which shows that the solutions presented here are general and exact. Moreover, the magnetoelastic stresses at the interface between the inclusion and the matrix are presented with figures.     

An analysis on characteristic of magnetoelasticity of a magnetic field microsensor made of cantilevered plates with ferromagnetic films

The purpose of this paper is to study the magnetomechanical characteristic of a microsensor which is composed of a cantilevered beam-plate with ferromagnetic films in order to measure the magnetic field from the deformation of plate when the microsensor is located in the magnetic field. To this end, a numerical approach made up of the finite element method for magnetic field and the finite difference method for deflection of the microsensor is proposed to perform the numerical analysis of deflection under magnetoelastic interaction. Some quantitative results of a case study for the magnetoelastic characteristic between the magnetic field and deflection of the microsensor in the magnetic field are given. The results show that this microsensor can be used not only to measure the magnitude of magnetic intensity, but also to possibly monitor the direction of the vector of the magnetic field.

Antiplane Shear Waves in Two Contacting Ferromagnetic Half Spaces

The problem of reflection and refraction of antiplane shear (or magneto-elastic) waves at the interface between two ferromagnetic half-spaces with slipping contact (vacuum gap) is studied for waves propagating normal to the direction of the applied external magnetic field which is assumed to be parallel to the interface. We show the existence of new waves that are localized near the interface between the two ferromagnetic media and accompany the reflected and the transmitted waves. We call the new waves as accompanying surface magneto-elastic (ASME) waves; their amplitudes depend upon values of magnetoelastic parameters of the two media and the intensity of the applied magnetic field. We derive closed-form expressions for magnitudes (coefficients) of the reflected, the refracted (transmitted) and the ASME waves. We show that for a range of values of the applied magnetic field the coefficient of the reflected wave increases and that of the transmitted wave decreases with an increase in the magnitude of the applied magnetic field; these coefficients eventually approach 1 and 0, respectively. That is, the applied external magnetic field can totally eliminate the transmitted wave, and can control energies of the reflected, the refracted and the ASME waves.     

Magnetoelastic interactions in a soft ferromagnetic body with a nonlinear law of magnetization: Some applications

Linearized equations and boundary conditions of a magnetoelastic ferromagnetic body are obtained with the nonlinear law of magnetization. Magnetoelastic interactions in a multi-domain ferromagnetic materials are considered for magneto soft materials, i.e. the case when the magnetic field intensity vector and magnetization vector are parallel. As a special case, the following two problems are considered: (1) the magnetoelastic stability of a ferromagnetic plate-strip in a homogeneous transverse magnetic field; (2) the stress–strain state of a ferromagnetic plane with a moving crack in a transverse magnetic field. It is shown that the modeling of magnetoelastic equations with a nonlinear law of magnetization provides qualitative and quantitative predictions on physical quantities including critical loads and stresses. In particular, it is shown that the critical magnetic field in plate stability problems found with the nonlinear law of magnetization is in better agreement with the experimental finding than the one found with a linear law. Furthermore, it is also shown that the stress concentration factor around a crack predicted with the nonlinear law of magnetization is more accurate than the one obtained with a linear counterpart. Numerical results are presented for above mentioned two problems and for various forms of nonlinear laws of magnetization.     

Limit points in the free inflation of a magnetoelastic toroidal membrane

One common phenomenon native to inflation of membranes is the elastic limit-point instability—a bifurcation point at which the membrane begins to deform enormously at the slightest increase of pressure. In the case of magnetoelastic materials, there is another possible phenomenon which we call magnetic limit-point instability, a state referring to the non-existence of an equilibrium state – either stable or unstable. In this work, we are concerned with such instabilities in an incompressible isotropic magnetoelastic toroidal membrane with an initial circular cross-section. A non-uniform magnetic field is generated using a circular current carrying loop placed inside the membrane in addition to inflation by a uniform hydrostatic pressure. An energy formulation based on magnetization is used to model the magneto-mechanical coupling along with a Mooney–Rivlin constitutive model for the elastic strain energy density. Computations show that the magnetic field strongly influences the location of elastic limit points and in some cases can cause them to vanish. Multiple equilibrium states are obtained as solutions of the governing equations and a criterion based on second variation is employed to determine their stability. Existence and dependence of magnetic limit point on the magnetic field is demonstrated. While the quantitative results obtained here are specific to the toroidal geometry, the deformation behaviour can be generalized to any magnetoelastic membrane.     

Magnetoelastic buckling: Why theory and experiment disagree

This paper does not stand alone; it is directly related to N.S. Christopherson's experimental study^1,2 of the magnetoelastic bending of thin steel plates, presented at a recent SEM meeting. It is, in fact, an extension of that study and relies upon some of Christopherson's data.In 1968, Moon and Pao presented a theory of the magnetoelastic buckling of a beam plate in a uniform magnetic field which differed from experimental results by a factor of two. Attempts to explain the discrepancy still leave approximately 25-percent error in the theoretical results as compared with experiment.We show that the assumption made by Moon and Pao—that a plate element experiences a force system consisting only of a couple, whose magnitude is proportional to the rotation of the element—is invalid for finite plates. An experiment is suggested for determining whether the assumption is valid for infinite plates. The present state of knowledge concerning magnetoelastic buckling is briefly summarized. Several types of magnetoelastic buckling are identified and briefly contrasted. Attention is directed to the importance of field discontinuities in problems involving magnetic deformation. Two paradoxical aspects of the Moon-Pao formula for the magnetoelastic buckling of beam plates are pointed out and briefly discussed.     

The Stress State of a Transversely Isotropic Ferromagnetic with a Parabolic Crack in a Homogeneous Magnetic Field

The magnetoelastic problem for a transversely isotropic ferromagnetic body with a parabolic crack in the plane of isotropy is solved explicitly. The body is in an external magnetic field, which is perpendicular to the plane of isotropy. The field induces elastic strains and a magnetic field in the body. The characteristics of the stress–strain distribution and induced magnetic field are determined; and their singularities in the neighborhood of the crack are analyzed. Formulas for the stress intensity factors of the mechanical and magnetic fields near the crack tip are presented     

On multiple circular inclusions in plane magnetoelasticity

A general series solution to the magnetoelastic problem of interacting circular inclusions in plane magnetoelasticity is provided in this paper. By the use of complex variable theory and Laurent series expansion method, the general expression of the magnetic and the magnetoelastic complex potentials for the circular inclusion problem is derived. Expanding the definition of the Airy’s stress function of pure elastic field into the magnetoelastic field and applying the superposition method, the general expression then can be reduced to a set of linear algebraic equations and solved in a series form. An approximate closed form solution for the case of two arbitrarily located inclusions is also provided. For illustrating the effect of the pertinent parameters, the numerical results of the interfacial magnetoelastic stresses are displayed in graphic form.
