“…Composite materials are usually isotropic; therefore, computational techniques and models developed for isotropic media are appropriate (Benabou et al , 2004; Gilbert et al , 2004; Guérin et al , 2016; Henrotte et al , 2006; Jakubas et al , 2017; Jankowski et al , 2015; Ślusarek et al , 2015a, 2015b, Zidarič et al , 2006; Zidarič and Miljavec, 2011). Among different descriptions of hysteresis in SMC cores, the following models have attracted much attention of researchers: the phenomenological T(x) model (Jankowski et al , 2015, Ślusarek et al , 2015a, 2015b), the Jiles–Atherton (JA) approach and its modifications (Benabou et al , 2004; Clénet et al , 2000, Zidarič et al , 2006; Ślusarek et al , 2015a), the Schneider description (Birčaková et al , 2017) and the Preisach model (Benabou et al , 2004, 2008). In the present paper, we focus on a low-dimensional description, developed by the Brazilian research group GRUCAD (Koltermann et al , 2000, 2002).…”
