Thermodynamic correlation tests between magnetostrictive and magnetomechanical effects in 2% Mn pipeline steel

The thermodynamic correlation between magnetostrictive and magnetomechanical effects is tested using reversible measurements of the uniaxial isostress magnetostrictive and isofield magnetomechanical coefficients. All measurements are on samples of the same 2% Mn pipeline steel, using both tensile and compressive stresses. The agreement is claimed to be satisfactory considering the high sensitivity required for the measurements.<
