چکیده

Exchange energy is especially sensitive to the numerical representation selected. We compare three discretized exchange energy formulations for 3D numerical micromagnetics on rectangular grids. Explicit formulae are provided for both Neumann and Dirichlet boundary conditions. Results illustrate the convergence order of these methods as a function of discretization cell size and the effect of cell size on vortex pinning.

Stabilisation yields strong convergence of macroscopic magnetisation vectors for micromagnetics without exchange energy

The convexified Landau-Lifshitz minimization problem in micromagnetics leads to a degenerate variational problem. Therefore strong convergence of finite element approximations cannot be expected in general. This paper introduces a stabilized finite element discretization which allows for the strong convergence of the discrete magnetization fields with reduced convergence order for a uniaxial mo...

Asymptotic Analysis for Micromagnetics of Thin Films Governed by Indefinite Material Coefficients

In this paper, a class of minimization problems, associated with the micromagnetics of thin films, is dealt with. Each minimization problem is distinguished by the thickness of the thin film, denoted by 0 < h < 1, and it is considered under spatial indefinite and degenerative setting of the material coefficients. On the basis of the fundamental studies of the governing energy functionals, the e...

Closed-form Molecular Mechanics Formulations for the 3D Local Buckling and 2D Effective Young’s Modulus of the Nanosheets

A closed form three-dimensional solution is presented for determination of the local buckling (cell buckling) load of the nanosheets. Moreover, an expression is proposed for the effective 2D Young’s modulus of the unit cell of the nanosheet. In this regard, a three-dimensional efficient space-frame-like geometrical model with angular and extensional compliances is considered to investigate stab...

Frustration in ferromagnetic materials

We examine the theory of micromagnetics developed by W. F. Brown. We show that in the case often considered, with exchange energy omitted, the minimum of the free energy is not attained for uniaxial materials but is attained for cubic materials. A study of the minimizing sequences reveals that these accurately model many features of observed domain structure. Finally, we reexamine the so-called...

Exchange energy representations in computational micromagnetics

In order to solve Brown’s equations, which describe a continuous medium, computational micromagnetic modeling requires a discrete representation of the magnetization M(r), and a discrete representation of the derivatives of M(r) must be chosen. This choice may be made through an explicit choice of interpolation or through the choice of numerical representation of Brown’s equations. In this pape...
