Ferroelectric Hysteresis Cycle Computing from a Statistical Model.

From statistical ideas and a schematic diagram representing a monocrystal and a ceramic a computer program is derived for calculating electrical hysteresis cycles during a ferroelectric-paraelectric transition. The program does not take into account the existence of domains and supposes only two positions for each dipoles. The interactions are simulated by a feedback system. This enables one to utilize the results of the theory of servomechanisms.
