Accurate modeling of vector hysteresis using a superposition of Preisach-type models

Vector hysteresis models are generally regarded as helpful tools that can be utilized in simulating multidimensional field-media interactions. In this paper, simulation of vector hysteresis is proposed by using a superposition of isotropic Preisach-type models. This approach gives the opportunity to fully incorporate rotational experimental results in its identification procedure, thus leading to higher simulation accuracy. Detailed solution of the model identification problem and some experimental testing results are given in the paper.
