Abstract:

We investigate a homogenization problem for a linearly elastic magnetic material that incorporates elastically rigid magnetic inclusions firmly bonded to the matrix. By considering a periodic arrangement of this material, we identify an effective magnetoelastic energy, obtained by homogenization when the period approaches zero. For comparison, we also briefly discuss alternative, essentially equivalent magnetic models naturally linked by a Legendre-Fenchel transform of magnetic energy density where the elastic deformation enters as a parameter.
