Various types of work in addition to pV work are frequently involved in experimental studies. Research on chemical equilibria for example may involve surfaces or phases at different electric or magnetic potentials [11], We will here look briefly at field-induced transitions, a topic of considerable interest in materials science. Examples are stress-induced formation of piezoelectric phases, electric polarization-induced formation of dielectrica and field-induced order-disorder transitions, such as for environmentally friendly magnetic refrigeration. 

Kadomtseva et al. (2000) measured thermal expansion and longitudinal and transverse magnetostriction in pulsed magnetic fields up to 25 T in Lai - Sr MnOj single crystals (x = 0.1,0.125 and 0.15). The results were ascribed to a suppression of the O phase and field-induced transitions to a new orbital-ordered ferromagnetic state.
