JOURNAL OF APPLIED PHYSICS 108, 123905 2010 A nonlinear transient constitutive model with eddy current effects for giant magnetostrictive materials Tian-Zhong Wang and You-He Zhoua Key Laboratory of Mechanics on Disaster and Environment in Western China, Lanzhou University, Ministry of Education, Lanzhou 730000, People’s Republic of China and Department of Mechanics and Engineering Science, College of Civil Engineering and Mechanics, Lanzhou University, Lanzhou 730000, People’s Republic of China Received 18 September 2010; accepted 29 October 2010; published online 23 December 2010 In this article, the dynamic magnetostrictive effect of giant magnetostrictive materials is studied and a novel general nonlinear transient constitutive model is established, in which the eddy current effects are incorporated. The validity and reliability of the obtained nonlinear transient constitutive model are verified by comparing its predicted results with existing experimental data. The excellent agreements between predicted results and experimental data indicate that the nonlinear transient constitutive model with eddy current effects can accurately capture frequency-dependent hysteretic behavior exhibited by giant magnetostrictive materials under different applied magnetic field amplitudes and frequencies. Moreover, the obtained constitutive model can also effectively capture the nonlinear magnetic-elastic-thermal coupling effect of giant magnetostrictive materials, since the stress and temperature-dependencies are incorporated in the nonlinear transient constitutive model.
