Abstract :
This paper presents results obtained from a numerical simulation of the magnetization distribution of Nd-Fe-B magnets. We used the three-dimensional Variable Magnetization and the Stoner-Wohlfarth (VMSW) method in the initial magnetization process. In the residual-magnetization and demagnetization processes, we used the magnetization equation of motion, which can be described by the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation. The calculation results were compared to the measured results to verify the accuracy of numerical simulation.
