Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Effect of Magnetization Upon the Elasticity of Rods
The relation existing between magnetization and the modulus of elasticity has been studied from a theoretical point of view for a number of years. The usual method of attacking the problem has been to note the changes that take place when a body already magnetized was subjected to a force which tended to bend, stretcher twist it. In 1847, for example, Matteucci examined the change in magnetization undergone by an iron rod when twisted. Further investigations along this line have been carried on by Wertheim, Wiedemann, Kelvin and others.
