Abstract
The magnetoelastic properties of Fe-Pd+Mo, Ni, C and Si ternary alloys have been studied. The γ phase was stabilized at room temperature by their addition. The linear magnetostriction λ//, ΔE effect and dλ///dH increase in the ternary alloys. Magnetomechanical coupling constant κ obtained from ΔE effect agrees with that calculated from dynamic magnetostriction. The maximum value of κ is 0.26 at a bias field of 8 Oe.
