The Preisach based DOK (Della Torre-Oti-Kadar) model was reformulated to in
crease its speed of computation so that is could be integrated into a comme
rcial finite element (FE) modeling package. This allowed the FE package to
offer a more accurate representation of magnetic material behavior than had
been previously available. The next logical step Is to offer vector magnet
ization calculation. Vector models are more complicated, though, due to the
cross-coupling effect applied field directions have on magnetization. The
Simplified Vector Preisach Model is reformulated here to speed its computat
ions by extending the use of the "cobweb" grid in defining the Preisach fun
ction to this multi-dimensional model.
