Magneto-mechanical actuation of ferromagnetic shape memory alloy/epoxy composites

Véronique Michaud, Susanne Glock, Luis Pablo Canal Casado

Ferromagnetic shape memory alloys (MSMA) exhibit magnetic field- and stress-induced twinning when processed into single crystals, but are brittle and difficult to shape. Embedding slender single crystalline MSMA elements into a polymer matrix can thus prov ...

Thermal and damping behaviour of magnetic shape memory alloy composites

Véronique Michaud, Susanne Glock

Single crystals of ferromagnetic shape memory alloys (MSMA) exhibit magnetic field and stress induced strains via energy dissipating twinning. Embedding single crystalline MSMA particles into a polymer matrix could thus produce composites with enhanced ene ...

Structural, physical and damping properties of melt-spun Ni-Mn-Ga wire-epoxy composites

Véronique Michaud, Susanne Glock

Ni-Mn-Ga is a ferromagnetic shape memory alloy that exhibits large, magnetic-field- and stress-induced strains via energy dissipating twinning when processed into single crystals. Grain boundaries suppress twinning and render polycrystalline Ni-Mn-Ga britt ...

Effect of annealing and silylation on the strength of melt-spun Ni-Mn-Ga fibres and their adhesion to epoxy

Véronique Michaud, Yves Leterrier, Susanne Glock, Edgars Sparnins

Single crystals of ferromagnetic Ni-Mn-Ga shape memory alloys show magnetic-field and stress induced twinning, leading to shape memory. Adaptive composites can thus be produced by embedding single crystalline particles or bamboo-structured Ni-Mn-Ga fibres ...
