The Jiles-Atherton Model of ferromagnetic materials and its dependence on the anhysteretic magnetization

Šimon GANS, Ján MOLNÁR

This paper addresses the description of the Jiles-Atherton model and one of the most importants parts of the model which is the anhysteretic magnetization.

The Jiles-Atherton model is an approach to model the structure and the changes in ferromagnetic materials in the process of their magnetization. The first work was published in 1984 but till this day it is a very popular tool for modelling ferromagnetic hysteresis of isotropic materials. Even though newer methods were created based on the Jiles-Atherton model that enable modelling of anisotropic materials, the original model described in this paper is still one of the most widely used in the field of engineering.
