In this paper, a variational approach is proposed to study the response of a single-crystalline magnetic shape memory alloy (MSMA) sample subject to external forces and magnetic fields. Especially, some criteria are derived to model the (quasi-static) movements of twin interfaces in the sample. By considering the compatibility condition, twin interfaces between two martensite variants are found to be flat planes with given normal vectors. To adopt the variational method, a total energy functional for the whole magneto-mechanical system is proposed. By calculating the variations of the total energy functional with respect to the independent variables, the equilibrium equations and the evolution laws for the internal variables can be derived. By further considering the variation of the total energy functional with respect to the variant distribution, some criteria for twin interface movements can be derived. The governing system of the current model is then formulated by composing the equilibrium equations, the evolution laws for the internal variables and the twin interface movement criteria. To show the validity of the governing system, some analytical results are constructed under certain simplified conditions, which can be used to simulate the magneto-mechanical response of the MSMA sample.
