In a more sophisticated application, saturable core inductors and magnetic amplifiers use a DC current through a separate winding to control an inductor's impedance. Varying the current in the control winding moves the operating point up and down on the saturation curve, controlling the alternating current through the inductor.
Magnetic domain theory was developed by French physicist Pierre-Ernest Weiss [1] who, in 1906, suggested existence of magnetic domains in ferromagnets. [2] He suggested that large number of atomic magnetic moments (typically 10 12-10 18) [citation needed] were aligned parallel. The direction of alignment varies from domain to domain in a more ...
Magnetic hysteresis can be characterized in various ways. In general, the magnetic material is placed in a varying applied H field, as induced by an electromagnet, and the resulting magnetic flux density (B field) is measured, generally by the inductive electromotive force introduced on a pickup coil nearby the sample.
Single-domain magnets are used wherever a strong, stable magnetization is needed (for example, magnetic recording). Larger magnets are divided into regions called domains . Across each domain, the magnetization does not vary; but between domains are relatively thin domain walls in which the direction of magnetization rotates from the direction ...
In electromagnetism and materials science, the Jiles–Atherton model of magnetic hysteresis was introduced in 1984 by David Jiles and D. L. Atherton. [1] This is one of the most popular models of magnetic hysteresis. Its main advantage is the fact that this model enables connection with physical parameters of the magnetic material. [2]
In electromagnetism, the Stoner–Wohlfarth model is a widely used model for the magnetization of ferromagnets with a single-domain. [1] It is a simple example of magnetic hysteresis and is useful for modeling small magnetic particles in magnetic storage, biomagnetism, rock magnetism and paleomagnetism.
The Wiegand effect is a macroscopic extension of the Barkhausen effect, [2] as the special treatment of the Wiegand wire causes the wire to act macroscopically as a single large magnetic domain. The numerous small high-coercivity domains in the Wiegand wire outer shell switch in an avalanche, generating the Wiegand effect's rapid magnetic field ...
Magnetostriction is a property of magnetic materials that causes them to change their shape or dimensions during the process of magnetization.The variation of materials' magnetization due to the applied magnetic field changes the magnetostrictive strain until reaching its saturation value, λ.
