Identification of the Preisach probability functions for soft magnetic materials

We present here a novel technique for the identification of the parameters of the probability function used in the Preisach-based modeling. This techn ique seems to overpass the problems linked with the use of a product of two single-valued functions as a probability function that in the case of soft magnetic materials may cause an unacceptable lack in accuracy of the model . Experimental tests are presented in the final section of the paper indica ting the satisfactory improvement of the predictive capacity of the model d ue to the proposed identification technique.
