Preface
Functional materials play a key role in many modern technical devices ranging
fromconsumermarketitemstoapplicationsinhigh-endequipmentforautomotive,
aircraft and spacecraft, medical, and information technologies. Among functional
materials, smart materials represent a class that transforms one basic physical
propertyintoanother.Thedevelopmentofdevicesutilizingsmartmaterials,aswell
astheirtesting,isgenerallyveryexpensive.Therefore,considerableefforthasbeen
made to develop modeling tools that allow bypassing many of the experimental
steps previously required in design. Important smart materials are ferroelectrics
(couplingbetweenelectricpolarizationandstrain),ferromagnets(couplingbetween
magnetizationandstrain),shape-memoryalloys(couplingbetweentemperatureand
strain), and magnetoelectric multiferroics (coupling between electric polarization
andmagnetization).Thelatteronescombinethemutualcontrollabilityofmagnetic
and electric state variables. They are of great interest in the development of mul-
tifunctionaldevices.Insingle-phasemultiferroics,themagnetoelectricinteractionis
generally very weak and mostly occurs at cryogenic temperatures. Therefore, the
experimental preparation and characterization of composite materials, as well as
their constitutive description based on homogenization strategies, are key chal-
lenges for the optimization of such magnetoelectric composites. The development
of such composites made from two different ferroics is based on a comprehensive
understanding of both the experimental and theoretical details of these materials.
Thus, this CISM course covers the modeling of ferroelectric materials, ferromag-
netic materials and shape-memory alloys, the formation offerroic microstructures
and their continuum-mechanical modeling, the experimental preparation and
characterization of magnetoelectric multiferroics, computational homogenization,
and the algorithmic treatment in the framework of numerical solution strategies.

Abstract Couplings of magnetic and electric fields in materials could allow for
promising applications in medical and information technology. In this contribu-
tion,werecapitulatewell-knownaspectsofmagneto-electro-mechanicalproperties
and their couplings. At first, we echo basic aspects of electricity and magnetism
and Maxwell’s equations. Secondly, we summarize the governing equations for
electrostatics and magnetostatics, point out the properties of physical fields across
internalsurfaces,anddiscussthework-energytheoremofelectrodynamics,theso-
calledPoynting‘stheorem.Thirdly,wewilldiscusssomefundamentalconceptsof
magneto-electro-mechanical couplings in matter. Here, we will formulate thermo-
dynamic potentials depending on different basic variables in order to be flexible
withaviewtodifferentmodelingaspects.Afterwards,wediscussaspectsofform-

1 Introduction
In this course, we are interested in the continuum modeling of ferroic functional
materials. Of particular interest are materials which allow for couplings between
differentphysicalquantitiesasforinstancecouplingbetweenelectricandmechanical
(ferroelectrics),mechanicalandmagnetic(ferromagnetics),ormagneticandelectric
fields(multiferroics),whicharedefinedas
• ferroelectricmaterialshaveaspontaneouselectricpolarization,wheretheinternal
electric dipoles are coupled to the material lattice, that can be switched by an
appliedelectricfield,
• ferromagnetic materials, governed by their crystalline structure and microstruc-
ture,haveaspontaneousmagneticpolarizationthatcanbereversedbyamagnetic
field,and
• multiferroicmaterialsexhibittwoormoreferroicproperties,likeferroelectricity,
ferromagnetism,andferroelasticity,inthesamephase.
However, the coexistence of magnetic and electric orderings in the same phase
isratherdifficult.Basedontheoreticalstudies,ithasbeenshownthatusualatomic-
levelmechanismswhicharedrivingferromagnetismandferroelectricityaremutually

In this course, we will recapitulate well known basic properties, balance equa-
tions and some formulations of thermodynamics. Furthermore, we will focus on
