2. Objectives The main objective of this proposed Special Issue is to collect contributions
from active researchers in the field of hysteresis and from structural, electrical, materials, and …

The various mathematical models for hysteresis such as Preisach, Krasnosel'skii–Pokrovskii
(KP), Prandtl–Ishlinskii (PI), Maxwell-Slip, Bouc–Wen and Duhem are surveyed in terms of …

Modeling and Control of Hysteresis Page 1 Hysteresis is a nonlinear effect that arises in diverse
disciplines ranging from physics to biology, from material science to mechanics, and from …

Hysteresis is a natural phenomenon that widely exists in structural and mechanical systems.
The characteristics of structural hysteretic behaviors are complicated. Therefore, numerous …

Hysteresis effects appear in several physical phenomena, such as ferromagnetism,
ferroelectricity and plasticity. They also appear in many fields of engineering. This state-of …

This new edition has been significantly revised and updated to reflect advances in the field
since the publication of the first edition, such as the systematic experimental testing of …

Hysteresis is a nonlinear phenomenon observed in the dynamic response behavior of
numerous structural systems under high intensity cyclic or random loading, as well as in …

Many machine elements in common engineering use exhibit the characteristic of “hysteresis
springs”. Plain and rolling element bearings that are widely used in motion guidance of …

In this paper, we discuss several techniques for modeling hysteresis in smart material
systems. The physical mechanisms leading to hysteresis vary greatly among materials and …

Hysteresis is a special type of behavior ubiquitous in science and engineering: it consists in
that slow inputs produce a loop in the steady-state part of the graph output-versus-input. On …
