Abstract :
Piezoelectrics, ferroelectrics, and ferromagnetics show hysteretic (intrinsically nonlinear) input-output characteristics. The interest in understanding the behavior of hysteretic devices is due to their useful characteristics, especially when used as detectors. This article studies the quasi-static behavior of hysteretic devices.
