The Nonlinear Landau-Lifshitz Equation: Ferromagnetic Resonance, Giant Magnetoimpedance, and Related Effects

We review recent work in which a methodology has been developed for solving the Landau-Lifshitz equation in its most general form, along with Maxwell's equations. The method has been applied to the solution of problems of giant magnetoimpedance and ferromagnetic resonance. Conditions for chaotic behavior have been explored. Perspectives for future applications are briefly discussed.
