Magnetization Process Simulation of Anisotropic Permanent Magnets by Using the Three-Dimensional VMSW Method

This paper presents a 3-D variable magnetization and Stoner-Wohlfarth (VMSW) method developed by expanding the conventional 2D-VMSW model. The 3-D VMSW method enables us to estimate distributions of remanent magnetization in magnetized permanent magnets in three dimensions.
