Multiple frequency transformation in the magnetostriction transducer: Frequency division in the relaxation mode

Abstract

The forced oscillations of the magnetization and elastic displacement in the normally magnetized ferrite plate with magnetoelastic properties are discussed. The process whereby the initial frequency is divided in the ratio defined by the multiplicity of the resonance frequencies of magnetic and elastic subsystems is investigated. The time and amplitude characteristics of the phenomenon are revealed on the basis of the impact excitation model of an elastic system under short-term magnetic actions. Recommendations are given for the practical implementation of excitation-frequency division in the scheme of a magnetostriction transducer.
