A modified Preisach hysteresis operator for the modeling of temperature dependent magnetic material behavior

In this paper, we present a model for temperature dependent hysteretic nonlinearities with nonlocal memories. This model can be applied to describe hysteretic material behavior. Common applications are ferromagnetic or magnetostrictive materials. Our model consists mainly of a Preisach operator with a continuous Preisach weight function. We choose a weight function which shows a strong correlation between the function’s parameters and certain properties of the hysteresis curve. As a new approach, the weight function is written as a function of temperature. The model parameters are customized to a set of symmetric hysteresis curves. We verify our model for magnetic materials with differently shaped hysteresis curves, different temperatures and magnetic field amplitudes
