Magnetic forces and magnetostriction in ferromagnetic material

Source abstract

In this paper a continuum description of deformable magnetized material including long‐range magnetic forces and magnetostriction is presented. Herein, magnetostriction and long‐range forces on the one hand, and magnetization and deformation on the other hand are considered simultaneously. Therefore, neither a strict distinction between the deformation due to magnetic forces and due to magnetostriction, nor a separation of the total free energy into magnetic and elastic energy is involved.
