Abstract :
The paper tackles the analysis of eddy current induced by Villary effect in a magnetostrictive device for energy harvesting purposes. The study aims to focus on the basic loss mechanism which would strongly affect the global performances of these devices, usually employed up to hundreds of hertz.
