Amongst the variety of complex phenomena encountered in nonlinear physics, a hysteretic effect can be expected on ultrasound cavitation due to the intrinsic nonlinearity of bubble dynamics. When applying successive ultrasound shots for increasing and decreasing acoustic intensities, a hysteretic behaviour is experimentally observed on inertial cavitation activity, with a loop area sensitive to ...

Hysteretic behavior is found experimentally in the transmembrane potential at low extracellular potassium in mouse lumbrical muscle cells. Adding isoprenaline to the external medium eliminates the bistable, hysteretic region. The system can be modeled mathematically and understood analytically with and without isoprenaline. Inward rectifying potassium channels appear to be essential for the bis...

A new, closed-form hysteretic model of the capillary pressure-saturation and relative permeability-saturation relationship has been implemented into ITOUGH2. The hysteretic capillary pressure function is based on the van Genuchten model, with a modified version of the dependent domain model of Mualem to describe the scanning curves. Hysteresis in the relative permeability relations is considere...

Recent experiments on ferroelectric gating have introduced a novel functionality, i.e., nonvolatility, in graphene field-effect transistors. A comprehensive understanding in the nonlinear, hysteretic ferroelectric gating and an effective way to control it are still absent. In this Letter, we quantitatively characterize the hysteretic ferroelectric gating using the reference of an independent ba...

Hysteretic energy dissipation in conventional structural configurations can be undesirable if it is achieved by the damage of primary structural members. Ideally, this hysteretic energy dissipation should occur in structural elements that are “disposable” (i.e., structural fuses that can be replaced without disturbance to the main system, just like real fuses). Much work has been accomplished o...

The multiphase nature of the flow in porous media is characterized by hysteretic effects on the macroscopic level. These effects have a significant influence on the behavior of the whole system and therefore have to be taken into account. The aim of this subproject is to develop and implement models describing the hysteresis in the context of the CO2 sequestration process.The hysteresis relatio...

Following the approach of [22], we derive a system of FokkerPlanck equations to model a stock-market in which hysteretic agents can take long and short positions. We show numerically that the resulting mesoscopic model has rich behaviour, being hysteretic at the mesoscale and allowing bubbles and volatility clustering in particular.

With the increasing popularity of actuators involving smart materials like piezoelectric, control of such materials becomes important. The existence of the inherent hysteretic behavior hinders the tracking accuracy of the actuators. To make matters worse, the hysteretic behavior changes with rate. One of the suggested ways is to have a feedforward controller to linearize the relationship betwee...
