The Jiles-Atherton (J-A) model is applied to the problem of describing the dynamics of a nonlinear circuit driven by a square wave voltage source and comprising a linear resistor and capacitor in series with a nonlinear inductor, whose core displays saturation and hysteresis. The presence of hysteresis is shown to increase the order of the circuit by one. Period-multiplication and chaos are observed and excellent agreement is obtained between experiment and simulation
