Ni-Mn-Ga single crystal Shape Memory Alloy magneto-thermomechanical modeling

In the frame of Thermodynamics of irreversible process, a model describing the thermomagneto-mechanical behavior of a single crystal of Ni-Mn-Ga is built. The choice of internal variables is linked to the physics of the problem (fraction of martensite variants, fraction of Weiss domains, magnetiz...
