Magnetoelastic properties of amorphous ribbons exhibiting positive magnetos
triction constant have been studied, Effect of tensile and torsional stress
es on hysteresis loop and inverse Wiedemann effect (IWE) have been investig
ated with the aim of using these materials for technical applications. Magn
etoelastic sensor has been designed and tested. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B
