Magnetic Coercive Field Measurement under Ultrasonic Mechanical Excitation
Résumé
The decrease of coercive magnetic field strength according to applied mechanical stress at audible and inaudible frequencies is investigated. To this aim, an experimental setup is introduced to both measure mechanical and magnetic behaviors. The mechanical resonant modes of a magnetic ring core sample are tracked to allow large longitudinal bendings and to reduce significantly the hysteresis loop width. Results are then set forth to show that elastic mechanical applied stress is relevant to describe the reduction of coercive field strength measured for both steady and transient states.
