Effect of shear strain on the deflection of a clamped magnetostrictive film-substrate system

▸ We model the deflection of a thick magnetostrictive film-substrate cantilever plate. ▸ Total stress along z from magnetic field is not zero without external force. ▸ Effect of in-plane shear strain in calculating deflection examined. ▸ Analytical solution of deflection obtained by assuming a curvature function. ▸ Shear strain for short cantilever film-substrate plate considered.
