Electrical hysteresis typically occurs in ferroelectric material, where domains of polarization contribute to the total polarization. Polarization is the electrical dipole moment (either C·m −2 or C·m). The mechanism, an organization of the polarization into domains, is similar to that of magnetic hysteresis.
In control theory, a bang–bang controller (hysteresis, 2 step or on–off controller), is a feedback controller that switches abruptly between two states. These controllers may be realized in terms of any element that provides hysteresis. They are often used to control a plant that accepts a binary input, for example a furnace that is either ...
Deadband is the period of dead-state of a system. A deadband or dead-band (also known as a dead zone or a neutral zone) is a band of input values in the domain of a transfer function in a control system or signal processing system where the output is zero (the output is 'dead' - no action occurs).
Hysteresis is an important concept in alternative stable state theory. In this ecological context, hysteresis refers to the existence of different stable states under the same variables or parameters. Hysteresis can be explained by "path-dependency", in which the equilibrium point for the trajectory of "A → B" is different from for "B → A ...
Bistability is often accompanied by hysteresis. On a population level, if many realisations of a bistable system are considered (e.g. many bistable cells [18]), one typically observes bimodal distributions. In an ensemble average over the population, the result may simply look like a smooth transition, thus showing the value of single-cell ...
blocked rotor test A test of an electric machine where the machine is energized but the shaft is prevented from turning. Blu-ray A type of optical disc written and read using a blue/violet laser. Bode plot A plot of the amplitude and phase frequency response of a system, where the actual response is approximated by straight line segments.
A family of hysteresis loops for grain-oriented electrical steel, a soft magnetic material. B R denotes retentivity and H C is the coercivity. The wider the outside loop is, the higher the coercivity. Movement on the loops is counterclockwise.
If the unemployment rate exhibits hysteresis, then it follows a statistically non-stationary process, because the expected value of the unemployment rate now and in the future permanently shifts when the rate itself changes. The process with hysteresis is a unit root process, which in its simplest form can be characterized as
