Micromagnetism And The Microstructure Of Ferromagnetic Solids

Download or read book Micromagnetism and the Microstructure of Ferromagnetic Solids written by Helmut Kronmüller and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-08-28 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main theme of this book is micromagnetism and microstructure as well as the analysis of the relations between characteristic properties of the hysteresis loop and microstructure. Also presented is an analysis of the role of microstructure in the fundamental magnetic properties (for example, magnetorestriction or critical behaviour) of crystalline and amorphous alloys. The authors apply the theory of micromagnetism to all aspects of advanced magnetic materials including domain patterns and magnetization processes under the influence of defect structures. Coverage includes modern developments in computational micromagnetism and its application to spin structures of small particles and platelets. It will be of interest to researchers and graduate students in condensed matter, physics, electrical engineering and materials science, as well as to industrial researchers working in the electrotechnical and recording industry.
