The science of emerging materials is now at the stage where many basic concepts have been developed, verified and demonstrated. The next stage involves an improved understanding of their behaviour through experimental, analytical and numerical modelling. Various configurations need to be tested, studied and modeled to produce effective designs in order to minimize design costs and create more efficient structures and systems. Testing and prototyping are always performed to verify the design, but simulation and modelling have become standard practice throughout the design process. Therefore, it is desirable to have, in addition to the experimental and analytical studies, adequate computational tools to predict the behaviour and response of these materials to the environment. In the last years, emerging materials such as magnetostrictive Terfenol and Galfenol as well as ferromagnetic shape memory alloy (FSMA) have been proposed for actuation and sensing purposes. The sensing response has also been extended to energy harvesting.

新兴材料科学目前正处于许多基本概念得到发展、验证和论证的阶段。下一阶段涉及通过实验、分析和数字建模来更好地了解它们的行为。需要对各种配置进行测试、研究和建模，以产生有效的设计，从而最大限度地降低设计成本并创建更高效的结构和系统。 测试和原型总是用来验证设计，但模拟和建模已经成为整个设计过程的标准做法。因此，除了实验和分析研究之外，还需要有足够的计算工具来预测这些材料对环境的行为和反应。在过去的几年中，新兴的材料，如磁致伸缩Terfenol和Galfenol以及铁磁形状记忆合金（FSMA）已被提出用于驱动和传感的目的。传感响应也已扩展到能量收集。
