This paper proposes a macroscopic model for ferromagnetic hysteresis that is well-suited for finite element implementation. The model is readily vectorial and relies on a consistent thermodynamic formulation. In particular, the stored magnetic energy and the dissipated energy are known at all times, and not solely after the completion of closed hysteresis loops as is usually the case. The obtai...

This paper presents the adaptation of the Preisach model, originally developed for magnetic hysteresis, to describe mathematically the hysteresis in the resistance-temperature characteristics of vanadium–dioxide (VO2) thin film radiation sensors. The necessary and sufficient conditions for the applicability of the Preisach model to a VO2 film sensor are experimentally verified. Experimentally m...

Simulations of magnetic and magnetoelastic behavior based on xnicromagnetic theory exhibit hysteresis. These magnetic systems have a highly nonlinear character involving short and long range fields. Computational results are presented and the role of various energetic contributions assessed and predicted using methods of contemporary nonlinear analysis.

A high-sensitivity ac hysteresis loop tracer has been developed to measure the low frequency hysteresis loop of soft magnetic materials. It has been applied successfully to characterize straight pieces of amorphous glass-covered microwires with metallic nucleus down to 1.5 microm thick. Based on the electromagnetic induction law, the proposed design is extremely simple and exploits the capabili...

The magnetization processes in binary magnetic/non-magnetic amorphous alloy Hf(57)Fe(43) are investigated by the detailed measurement of magnetic hysteresis loops, temperature dependence of magnetization, relaxation of magnetization and magnetic ac susceptibility, including a nonlinear term. Blocking of magnetic moments at lower temperatures is accompanied by the slow relaxation of magnetizatio...

A general formulation of scalar hysteresis is proposed. This formulation is based on two steps. First, a generating function g(x) is associated with an individual system, and a hysteresis evolution operator is defined by an appropriate envelope construction applied to g(x), inspired by the overdamped dynamics of systems evolving in multistable free-energy landscapes. Second, the average hystere...

Preisach model is a well-known hysteresis identification method in which the hysteresis is modeled by linear combination of hysteresis operators. Although Preisach model describes the main features of system with hysteresis behavior, due to its rigorous numerical nature, it is not convenient to use in real-time control applications. Here a novel neural network approach based on the Preisach mod...

The magnetic-field-induced variations of the microwave surface resistance, Rs, have been investigated in ceramic Mg1−x(LiAl)xB2, with x in the range 0.1 ÷ 0.4. The measurements have been performed on increasing and decreasing the DC magnetic field, H0, at fixed temperatures. At low temperatures, we have observed a magnetic hysteresis in the Rs(H0) curves in all the investigated samples. On incr...

Superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) are accepted as one of the highest magnetic field sensitive probes. There are increasing demands to image local magnetic fields to explore spin properties and current density distributions in a two-dimensional layer of semiconductors or superconductors. Nano-SQUIDs have recently attracting much interest for high spatial resolution measuremen...
