The substitution of Mn by Ni in (Mn,Fe)2(P,Si) compounds and its magnetocaloric consequences: A comparison with research studies on cobalt regarding tuneable curie temperature, hysteresis and magnetization

With green energy well on its way to becoming a necessity rather than a commodity it is vital to not only focus on improving the source of energy, but also the efficiency of the eventual energy usage. Vapor-compression based household refrigerators are one of the most used electrical appliances in the common household and consume electricity...

Nonlinear behaviour of ferromagnetic steel

In order to monitor elliptical fatigue crack growth in ferromagnetic steel using magnetic methods, analternative to the self magnetic flux leakage method must be derived as elliptical cracks can grow to significant sizes before they reach through the thickness of the plate material. An approach is sought by translating subtle changes in...
