Role of Fe addition in Ni–Mn–Ga–Co–Cu–Fe ferromagnetic shape memory alloys for high-temperature magnetic actuation

, 2020
The Ni–Mn–Ga ferromagnetic shape memory alloys (FSMAs) are a group of active materials that undergo martensitic transformations (MTs) induced by temperature, stress and/or magnetic fields, resulting in large recoverable mechanical deformations.
