Identification method analyses for the scalar generalized moving Preisach model using major hysteresis loops

A parametric identification strategy for the generalized moving Preisach model is presented. As it requires only the major hysteresis loop (to determine the distribution parameters) and the remanent major hysteresis loop (to determine the moving parameter), it is less sensitive to the presence of the usual experimental errors than other identification methods. The Preisach distribution function is considered to be in general a bivariate function. The method is verified on various commercial magnetic media.
