Abstract
In this context, the ME coupling on microspheres based on piezoelectric poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and magnetostrictive CoFe2O4 (CFO) particles was theoretically studied based on Finite Element Methods (FEM). The effect of sphere size and filler content on the ME response was evaluated, showing that the ME response of CFO/PVDF microspheres is strongly influenced by the magnetic field intensity, sphere diameter and CFO content, being the highest ME response achieved on composite sphere with 90 wt% of CFO and 1.2 μm.
