  2. Inverse magnetostrictive effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Inverse_magnetostrictive_effect

    In fact, magnetostriction is more complex and depends on the direction of the crystal axes. In iron, the [100] axes are the directions of easy magnetization, while there is little magnetization along the [111] directions (unless the magnetization becomes close to the saturation magnetization, leading to the change of the domain orientation from [111] to [100]).

  3. Eddy current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_current

    A similar effect is the proximity effect, which is caused by externally induced eddy currents. [ 3 ] An object or part of an object experiences steady field intensity and direction where there is still relative motion of the field and the object (for example in the center of the field in the diagram), or unsteady fields where the currents ...

  4. Voigt effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voigt_effect

    Unlike many other magneto-optical effects such as the Kerr or Faraday effect which are linearly proportional to the magnetization (or to the applied magnetic field for a non magnetized material), the Voigt effect is proportional to the square of the magnetization (or square of the magnetic field) and can be seen experimentally at normal incidence.

  6. Magnetization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetization

    In classical electromagnetism, magnetization is the vector field that expresses the density of permanent or induced magnetic dipole moments in a magnetic material. Accordingly, physicists and engineers usually define magnetization as the quantity of magnetic moment per unit volume. [1] It is represented by a pseudovector M.

  7. Wiegand effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiegand_effect

    The Wiegand effect is a nonlinear magnetic effect, named after its discoverer John R. Wiegand, produced in specially annealed and hardened wire called Wiegand wire. [1] Principle of a Wiegand sensor and external magnetic field. Wiegand wire is low-carbon Vicalloy, a ferromagnetic alloy of cobalt, iron, and vanadium. Initially, the wire is fully ...

  8. Magnetostriction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetostriction

    The variation of materials' magnetization due to the applied magnetic field changes the magnetostrictive strain until reaching its saturation value, λ. The effect was first identified in 1842 by James Joule when observing a sample of iron. [1] Magnetostriction applies to magnetic fields, while electrostriction applies to electric fields.

  9. Magnetic hysteresis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_hysteresis

    The phenomenon of hysteresis in ferromagnetic materials is the result of two effects: rotation of magnetization and changes in size or number of magnetic domains.In general, the magnetization varies (in direction but not magnitude) across a magnet, but in sufficiently small magnets, it doesn't.
