Electromagnetic Effects on Materials

Electromagnetic Effects on Materials is a research topic within Electrical and Electronic Engineering. Science Explorer counts 5k research works in it since 1950. 9.9% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.

This cluster of papers explores the effects of electrically-assisted deformation, particularly through electropulsing and electroplasticity, on the microstructure evolution, mechanical properties, and recrystallization kinetics of metallic alloys. It also investigates the influence of electric current on solid state phase transformations, magnetoplastic effects, and thermal behavior in metals and ceramics.
