Magnetic force microscope ~MFM! imaging in conjunction with longitudinal Kerr hysteresis loop measurements have been used to investigate the micromagnetic behavior of micron scale epitaxial ~110! bcc Fe thin-film elements ~50-nm thick! with rectangular, triangular, and needle-shaped ends and competing magnetic anisotropies. Thin-film elements of 2-mm width and 6-mm length and greater have been ...

Krasnosel’skii-Pokrovskii (KP) model is one of the great operator-based phenomenological models which is used in modeling hysteretic nonlinear behavior in smart actuators. The time continuity and the parametric continuity of this operator are important and valuable factors for physical considerations as well as designing well-posed identification methodologies. In most of the researches conduct...

Ferroresonance is a non-linear phenomenon and very dynamic in the power quality problems. This phenomenon should be carefully analyzed so that preventive measures could be taken before its appearance and prevent injury and damage to electrical power appliances. Ferroresonance is seen more in the middle-voltage networks with supplying unloaded or slightly loaded transformers by cables. The mater...

The resistivity ρ(T) of VO2 changes by 3–5 orders of magnitude in a spectacular semiconductor-tometal phase transition around 68 C. This transition is always hysteretic; in thin films, the hysteresis width is typically 10–20 C. For a variety of reasons, of the many proposals to use this transition in applications almost none have materialized. One serious commercial and military application in ...

In this paper, an ellipse-based mathematic model is developed to characterize the rate-dependent hysteresis in piezoelectric actuators. Based on the proposed model, an expanded input space is constructed to describe the multivalued hysteresis function H[u](t) by a multiple input single output (MISO) mapping Gamma:R(2)-->R. Subsequently, the inverse MISO mapping Gamma(-1)(H[u](t),H[u](t);u(t)) i...

Measurements of the frequency shift versus distance in noncontact atomic force microscopy (NC-AFM) allow measurements of the force gradient between the oscillating tip and a surface (force-spectroscopy measurements). When nonconservative forces act between the tip apex and the surface the oscillation amplitude is damped. The dissipation is caused by bistabilities in the potential energy surface...

Modeling magnetic components for simulation in electric circuits requires an accurate model of the hysteresis loop of the core material used. It is important that the parameters extracted for the hysteresis model be optimized across the range of operating conditions that may occur in circuit simulation. This paper shows how to extract optimal parameters for the Jiles–Atherton model of hysteresi...

A new 2D coordination polymer with an azide-bridged 1D homospin chain is synthesized, which shows slow magnetic relaxation and step hysteresis loop, and is ascribed to be a typical Ising-type single-chain magnet.

fe49co33ni18 nanowire arrays (175 nm in diameter and lengths ranging from 5 to 32μm) were fabricated into nanopores of hard-anodized aluminum oxide templates using pulsed ac electrodeposition technique. hysteresis loop measurements indicated that increasing the length decreases coercivity and squareness values (from 274 oe and 0.58 to200 oe and 0.105, respectively), indicating the increase in m...
