Abstract

Abstract Ferromagnetic shape memory alloys (MSMAs), such as Ni-Mn-Ga single crystals, can exhibit the shape memory effect due to an applied magnetic field at room temperature. Under a variable magnetic field and a constant bias stress loading, MSMAs have been used for actuation applications. Under variable stress and a constant bias field, MSMAs can be used in power harvesting or sensing devices, e.g. in structural health monitoring applications. This behavior is primarily a result of the approximately tetragonal unit cell whose magnetic easy axis is approximately aligned with the short axis of the unit cell within the Ni-Mn-Ga single crystals. Under an applied field, the magnetic easy axis tends to align with the external field. Similarly, under an applied compressive force, the short side of the unit cell tends to align with the direction of the force. This work introduced a new feature to the existing macro-scale magneto-mechanical model for Ni-Mn-Ga single crystal. This model includes the fact that the magnetic easy axis in the two variants is not exactly perpendicular as observed by D’silva et al (2020 Shape Mem. Superelasticity 6 67–88). This offset helps explain some of the power harvesting capabilities of MSMAs. Model predictions are compared to experimental data collected on a Ni-Mn-Ga single crystal. The experiments include both stress-controlled loading with constant bias magnetic field load (which mimics power harvesting or sensing) and field-controlled loading with constant bias compressive stress (which mimics actuation). Each type of test was performed at several different load levels, and the applied field was measured without the MSMA specimen present so that demagnetization does not affect the experimentally measured field as suggested by Eberle et al (2019 Smart Mater. Struct. 28 025022). Results show decent agreement between model predictions and experimental data. Although the model predicts experimental results decently, it does not capture all the features of the experimental data. In order to capture all the experimental features, finally, a generalized regression neural network (GRNN) was trained using the experimental data (stress, strain, magnetic field, & emf) so that it can make a reasonably better prediction.
