• Magnetizable elastomer
• Multi-stability
• Non-uniform magnetic field

The existence of more than two stable equilibrium shapes (multi-stability) of a thin body with magnetizable elastomer in some non-uniform magnetic fields is found theoretically. The method of the creation of such non-uniform magnetic fields (using electromagnetic coils) is proposed. The criterion of an unstable body equilibrium is obtained.
