Material Detail

Magnetic Hysteresis

A ferromagnetic material's hysteresis loop is simulated as a function of coercivity, saturation field, and remanence. The change of magnetic domain order is illustrated throughout the hysteresis loop cycle.

Keywords:: magnetic field, magnetic domains, ferromagnetic, hysteresis loop, permanent magnet, coercivity, ferromagnet, remanence, saturation field, hysteresis, retentivity
