In this paper, we report on the effect of stress on the mechanical relaxation in the
quenched Ni55Fe20Al25 Ferromagnetic Shape Memory Alloy (FSMA). The sound velocity and
internal friction measurements were carried out using a vibrating reed setup. The results of such
measurements on this system with varying stress amplitudes are presented. The present study
provides a new insight into the stress amplitude and temperature dependence of the damping
process and their bearing on the structural changes in the FSMAs.
