Mathematics of Hysteretic Phenomena

Starting with the mathematical modeling of classical problems of hysteretic phenomena, the author provides an insight into the physics of the inverse hysteresis, higher order reversal loops, accommodation, viscosity, creep, wasp-waisted loops and hysteretic coupled systems. Adopting a novel approach, he presents the T(x) model and applies it successfully to describe most, if not all, important phenomena in magnetism. Thus, not only scientists in physics and applied mathematics will benefit from this analytical tool, but also engineers working in magnetic circuit design will gain a mathematical tool for their work. Moreover, designers of magnets and magnetic components will equally profit from the book, as will researchers from other branches of physics, technology and natural sciences.
