Permanent magnets and hard magnetic materials

This review deals with the definition and development of hard magnetic materials with special emphasis on more recent developments in this field. After discussing the fundamental properties of all hard magnetic materials, based on the intrinsic and extrinsic properties, some remarks on the history of hard magnetic materials and permanent magnets are given. The important hard ferrites are only b...

Rare earth elements and permanent magnets (invited)

Rare earth (RE) magnets have become virtually indispensible in a wide variety of industries such as aerospace, automotive, electronics, medical, and military. RE elements are essential ingredients in these high performance magnets based on intermetallic compounds RECo5, RE2TM17 (TM: transition metal), and RE2TM14B. Rare earth magnets are known for their superior magnetic properties—high inducti...

Nonlinear Numerical Simulation of Permanent Magnets

Rare earth permanent magnet models are commonly used in the design of undulators and wigglers. Normally the operating point of the magnet in the B vs. H diagram corresponds to a linear reversible characteristic. The region of linearity is strongly dependent on the temperature. The operation of part of the magnet blocks in the region of non-linearity is responsible for the so-called irreversible...
