21. This formula follows from the relation u 33 s = λs M3 2 / Ms2 combined with the field dependence of the mean magnetization M3 described by the Langevin function f (x) =coth (x) -1/x; see X. J. Zheng and X. E. Liu, J. Appl. Phys. 97, 053901 (2005), and references therein. 10.1063/1.1850618
22. This relation provides the volume conservation in strained Terfenol-D. It holds for the macroscopic deformations resulting from magnetization reorientations in a model polycrystal, where the crystallites have a cubic lattice with the same spatial orientation and a randomly oriented magnetization with fixed magnitude.

24. We suppose that the single-domain state can be created in an epitaxial ferroelectric film even at small misfit strains near um =0, where the formation of ferroelastic (non- 180°) domains becomes energetically favorable [V. G. Kukhar, N. A. Pertsev, H. Kohlstedt, and R. Waser, Phys. Rev. B 73, 214103 (2006)]. The domain nucleation may be suppressed by rapid cooling of a thin film subjected to a strong electric field. 10.1103/PhysRevB.73.214103

28. The strain sensitivities S1 and S2 of the in-plane polarization components are not further discussed in this paper. These sensitivities differ from zero in the monoclinic r phase and the orthorhombic aa phase and give rise to nonzero transverse ME coefficients α13 and α23.
