KilmartinSiemens VDO Automotive CorporationABSTRACTA Magnetoelastic based Non-Contacting, Non-Compliant Torque Sensor is being developed by Siemens VDO for automotive transmission applications. Such a sensor would benefit the automotive industry by providing the feedback needed for precise computer control of transmission gear shifting under a wide range of road conditions and would also facilitate cross-platform usage of a common transmission unit. Siemens VDO has prototyped transmission torque sensors operating on the principle of Inverse- magnetostriction, also referred to as the Inverse-Joule Effect and the Villari Effect. Magnetostriction, first documented in the mid 1800’s, is a structural property of matter that defines a material’s dimensional changes as a result of exposure to a magnetic field. Magnetostriction is caused when the atoms that constitute a material reorient in order to align their magnetic moments with an external magnetic field. This effect is quantified for a specific material by its saturation magnetostriction constant, which is a value that describes a material’s maximum change in length per unit length.Inverse-magnetostriction, conversely, defines changes in a material’s magnetic properties in response to applied mechanical forces. Material that is highly magnetostrictive and elastic in nature is referred to as being magnetoelastic. The premise of the Siemens VDO torque sensor design is that a magnetoelastic material can be bonded to a cylindrical shaft and magnetized in its mechanical quiescent state to create a sense- element. While under torque, principle tensile and compressive stress vectors in the form of counter- spiraling, mutually orthogonal helices develop in the shaft and are conveyed to the magnetoelastic sense-element giving rise to a measurable magnetic field change. The magnetic field
