E. Hristoforou et al., AN ALTERNATIVE METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE LAMBDA(H) FUNCTION IN MAGNETOSTRICTIVE AMORPHOUS-ALLOYS, Sensors and actuators. A, Physical, 67(1-3), 1998, pp. 49-54
An alternative method for determining the dependence of the microstrai
n lambda on the biasing magnetic field H in magnetostrictive amorphous
ribbons and wires is proposed. Such a technique is based on the depen
dence of the lambda(H) function on the biasing field at either the aco
ustic stress point of origin or the elastic wave receiving point, in m
agnetostrictive delay lines. Experimental results are given, illustrat
ing a good agreement between the results obtained by this method and o
ther reference lambda(H) function techniques. (C) 1998 Published by El
