New Developments in Magnetostrictive Materials.

Abstract

New magnetostrictive alloys of certain rare earths and iron have been discovered that have properties far surpassing more conventional nickel alloys and comparing favorably to piezoelectric ceramics. This report discusses those alloys, their properties, and the possibilities of their application of underwater transducer design. (Author)
