Ni₂MnGa is a ferromagnetic shape-memory alloy (FSMA) based on the Heusler intermetallic compound family, characterized by its ability to undergo reversible martensitic transformation triggered by magnetic fields rather than temperature alone. This material is primarily investigated in research and emerging applications where magnetic actuation, energy harvesting, and adaptive structural response are critical, offering advantages over conventional thermoelastic shape-memory alloys by enabling remote, contactless control of shape change.
