Magnetic Properties of Alloys

Four magnetization models, now considered as classical, are presented: the Stoner-Wolhfarth model, the Jiles-Atherton model, the Globus model, and the Preisach model. The paper describes the methods each model uses to simulate the magnetization mechanisms, reversible and irreversible processes, major and minor loops, and anhysteretic behavior. Improvements and changes are proposed to the Stoner-Wolhfarth and Globus models. The necessary simplifying assumptions define the limits of applicability of the models. The paper concludes with a table of the main characteristics of each model to help a potential user to make a suitable choice.
