Numerical Implementation of the DPC Model

This paper discusses the numerical implementation of a new vector hysteresis model, called the Della Torre, Pinzaglia and Cardelli (DPC) model, introduced as general hysteresis vector model for both isotropic and anisotropic magnetic materials. The present implementation is a 2-D one that uses any kind of hysteron described by the DPC formulation. Here some examples of numerical computation using Stoner-Wohlfarth-type hysterons are presented. The results computed by the model, applied to some basic vector hysteresis configurations, are in agreement with experimental behavior and model properties.
