A Ginzburg-Landau model embedded into a vibrational model is used to study the flexocaloric effect in a beam near a ferroelastic transition. The caloric response upon bending is characterized by the isothermal entropy change and the adiabatic temperature change of the beam. Here, we obtain a larger response relative to the strength of the applied forces at temperatures slightly above the transition temperature. It is also obtained that the maximum caloric response is almost linear with the bending angle of the bea…
