Implementation of the Preisach-Stoner-Wohlfarth Classical Vector Model

A useful vector magnetic model must accurately simulate both the magnitude and direction of the magnetization when a magnetic medium is subjected to a linear or rotating applied field. Such a model has been recently presented as the Preisach-Stoner-Wohlfarth (PSW) model. The Preisach model computes the magnitude of the magnetization; the Stoner-Wohlfarth model computes the direction of the magnetization. These two models are combined into the PSW model. The PSW model is now initially implemented in a two-dimensional vector classical Preisach model. The model is computationally efficient since the magnetization angle is accessed for all applied fields from a single lookup table, which is generated by a one-time Stoner-Wohlfarth computation.
