Texture dependent surface energy measurements on magnetostrictive alloys for abnormal grain growth modeling

Galfenol is a magnetostrictive alloy used in sensing, actuating, and energy harvesting devices. Developing protocols for making thin sheet Galfenol with abnormally grown Goss or Cube grains is challenging because the mechanisms that regulate grain boundary mobility and texture development in these a...
