Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A magnetostrictive device measures an input magnetic field of 10 Oersted. If the magnetostrictive constant is 0.02, calculate the expected change in length of the material given an original length of 200 mm.

💡 Hint: Remember the formula for calculating changes in dimensions with magnetostriction.

Challenge 2 Hard

Design a basic torque sensor using magnetostrictive materials. Describe the principle on which it operates and sketch a basic diagram.

💡 Hint: Think about how torque can change the magnetic influence on the material.
