1903A. Geikie Text-bk. Geol. (ed. 4) II. 718 He [sc. Weinschenk] believes that rock to have been part of a normal granitic magma which crystallized under abnormal conditions, and that it owes its mineralogical composition and characteristic foliated structure..to the peculiar relations of tension accompanying the plication of the mountains. To these relations he has given the name of ‘piezocrystallization’. 1938A. Johannsen Descr. Petrogr. Igneous Rocks IV. 79 The parallel texture is seen in dynamometamorphosed rocks or in border facies. In the latter case it may be due to piezocrystallization, for the feldspars also are often more or less parallel. 1954R. L. Parker tr. Niggli's Rocks & Min. Deposits xiv. 523 Effects of stress on partly solidified material. Such effects leave their impression on stuctures and textures and are responsible for the piezo-crystallization of magmas.
1901Sci. Abstr. A. IV. 1043 The recorded observations determine, for the pyro- and piezo-magnetic excitement, only superior limiting values. 1959Physics & Chem. of Solids XI. 77/2 The piezomagnetic moment will be reversed in sign when the antiferromagnetic sublattice magnetizations are reversed in sign. 1972Nature 8 Dec. 348/2 Both volcanic eruptions and the San Andreas creep increments are very imperfectly understood so that a large scale control experiment which demonstrates quantitatively the role of the piezomagnetic effect in producing local magnetic anomalies is very desirable. 1978Ibid. 9 Mar. 130/1 When a stress is applied to, or removed from, a rock there is a distortion of crystal structure which often gives rise to a small change in the rock's remanent magnetisation. This is known as the piezomagnetic effect and has an obvious application to the prediction of earthquakes.

Phenomena v. 164 With the advent of the electron theory of matter,..physicists began to inquire as to the possibility of the phenomena of pyro- and piezo-magnetism. 1967Condon & Odishaw Handbk. Physics (ed. 2) iv. viii. 143/1 In antiferromagnetic crystals of sufficiently low symmetry, such as CoF2 and MnF2, the magnetic analogue of piezoelectricity, piezomagnetism, can occur. 1978Nature 9 Mar. 130/1 In practice, piezomagnetism has been of little use in earthquake prediction.
1954Physical Rev. XCIV. 42/2 The piezoresistance results for germanium and silicon..have been expressed in terms of the pressure coefficient of resistivity and two simple shear coefficients. 1970Jrnl. Appl.

1935J. W. Cookson in Physical Rev. XLVII. 194/2 It is herein meant by the piezo-resistive effect that change in electrical resistance which a homogeneous body undergoes when subjected to mechanical stress. 1963Jrnl. Appl. Physics XXXIV. 684/2 The piezoresistive effect in semiconductors..is generally a result of the dependence of the electronic energy levels of a crystal on the state of strain in the crystal. 1973Physics Bull. Dec. 743/3 The cartridge consists of an elastic stainless steel cantilever on to which a pair of silicon piezoresistive strain gauges have been fused.
