Hysteretic model
From HandWiki - Reading time: 10 min
Hysteretic models are mathematical models capable of simulating the complex nonlinear behavior characterizing mechanical systems and materials used in different fields of engineering, such as aerospace, civil, and mechanical engineering. Some examples of mechanical systems and materials having hysteretic behavior are:
- materials, such as steel, reinforced concrete, wood;
- structural elements, such as steel, reinforced concrete, or wood joints;
- devices, such as seismic isolators[1] and dampers.
Hysteretic models may have a generalized displacement [math]\displaystyle{ u }[/math] as input variable and a generalized force [math]\displaystyle{ f }[/math] as output variable, or vice versa. In particular, in rate-independent hysteretic models, the output variable does not depend on the rate of variation of the input one.[2][3]
Rate-independent hysteretic models can be classified into four different categories depending on the type of equation that needs to be solved to compute the output variable:
- Algebraic models;
- Transcendental models;
- Differential models;
- Integral models.
Algebraic models
In algebraic models, the output variable is computed by solving algebraic equations.
Bilinear model
Model formulation
In the bilinear model formulated by Vaiana et al. (2018),[4] the generalized force at time t, representing the output variable, is evaluated as a function of the generalized displacement as follows:
[math]\displaystyle{ f_t=k_a\left(u_t-u_j\right)+k_b u_j+s_t f_0 \quad \text{when} \quad u_t s_t\lt u_j s_t, }[/math]
[math]\displaystyle{ f_t=k_b u_t+s_t f_0 \quad \text{when} \quad u_t s_t\gt u_j s_t, }[/math]
where [math]\displaystyle{ k_a, k_b, }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ f_0 }[/math] are the three model parameters to be calibrated from experimental or numerical tests, whereas [math]\displaystyle{ s_t }[/math] is the sign of the generalized velocity at time [math]\displaystyle{ t }[/math], that is, [math]\displaystyle{ s_t = \operatorname{sign}(\dot{u}_t) }[/math]. Furthermore, [math]\displaystyle{ u_0 }[/math]is an internal model parameter evaluated as:
[math]\displaystyle{ u_0=\frac{f_0}{k_a-k_b}, }[/math]
whereas [math]\displaystyle{ u_j }[/math] is the internal variable:
[math]\displaystyle{ u_j=\frac{k_a u_{t-\Delta t}+s_t f_0-f_{t-\Delta t}}{k_a-k_b} }[/math].
Hysteresis loop shapes

Model formulation
In the asymmetric bilinear model formulated by Vaiana et al. (2020),[3] the generalized force at time t, representing the output variable, is evaluated as a function of the generalized displacement as follows:
[math]\displaystyle{ f_t=k_a\left(u_t-u_j\right)+k_b u_j+s_t f_0 \quad \text{when} \quad u_t s_t\lt u_j s_t, }[/math]

where [math]\displaystyle{ k_a=k_a^+(k_a^-), k_b=k_b^+(k_b^-), }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ f_0 = f_0^+ (f_0^-) }[/math] are the three model parameters of the generic loading (unloading) case to be calibrated from experimental or numerical tests, whereas [math]\displaystyle{ s_t }[/math] is the sign of the generalized velocity at time [math]\displaystyle{ t }[/math], that is, [math]\displaystyle{ s_t = \operatorname{sign}(\dot{u}_t) }[/math].

Animation
The following gif shows the nonlinear response of a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) mechanical system, with unit mass and asymmetric rate-independent hysteretic behavior, subjected to an external random force. To simulate its response, the following ABM parameters have been used: [math]\displaystyle{ k_a^+=50 \,\, (k_a^-=50), k_b^+=10 \,\, (k_b^-=1), f_0^+=1 \,\, (f_0^-=2) }[/math].

[math]\displaystyle{ f_t=\beta_1 u_t^3 + \beta_2 u_t^5+k_b u_t+\left(k_a-k_b\right)\left[\frac{(1+s_t u_t-s_t u_j+2u_0)^{1-\alpha}}{s_t (1-\alpha)}-\frac{(1+2u_0)^{1-\alpha}}{s_t (1-\alpha)}\right]+s_t f_0 \quad \text{when} \quad u_t s_t\lt u_j s_t, }[/math]

Transcendental models
In transcendental models, the output variable is computed by solving transcendental equations, namely equations involving trigonometric, inverse trigonometric, exponential, logarithmic, and/or hyperbolic functions.
Exponential models
Exponential model by Vaiana et al. (2018)
Model formulation
In the exponential model developed by Vaiana et al. (2018),[4] the generalized force at time [math]\displaystyle{ t }[/math], representing the output variable, is evaluated as a function of the generalized displacement as follows:
[math]\displaystyle{ f_t=-2\beta u_t+e^{\beta u_t}-e^{-\beta u_t} +k_b u_t-s_t\frac{k_a-k_b}{\alpha}\left[e^{-\alpha(u_t s_t-u_j s_t+2u_0)}-e^{-2\alpha u_0}\right]+f_0 s_t \quad \text{when} \quad u_t s_t \lt u_j s_t, }[/math]
[math]\displaystyle{ f_t=-2\beta u_t+e^{\beta u_t}-e^{-\beta u_t}+k_b u_t+f_0 s_t \quad \text{when} \quad u_t s_t\gt u_j s_t, }[/math]
where [math]\displaystyle{ k_a, k_b, \alpha }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ \beta }[/math] are the four model parameters to be calibrated from experimental or numerical tests, whereas [math]\displaystyle{ s_t }[/math] is the sign of the generalized velocity at time [math]\displaystyle{ t }[/math], that is, [math]\displaystyle{ s_t = \operatorname{sign}(\dot{u}_t) }[/math]. Furthermore, [math]\displaystyle{ u_0 }[/math]and [math]\displaystyle{ f_0 }[/math] are two internal model parameters evaluated as:
[math]\displaystyle{ u_0=-\frac{1}{2\alpha} \ln\left(\frac{10^{-20}}{k_a-k_b}\right), }[/math]
[math]\displaystyle{ f_0=\frac{k_a-k_b}{2\alpha}\left(1-e^{-2\alpha u_0}\right), }[/math]
whereas [math]\displaystyle{ u_j }[/math] is the internal variable:
[math]\displaystyle{ u_j=u_{t-\Delta t}+2u_0 s_t + \frac{s_t}{\alpha} \ln\left[\frac{\alpha s_t}{k_a-k_b} \left(-2\beta u_{t-\Delta t}+e^{\beta u_{t-\Delta t}}-e^{-\beta u_{t-\Delta t}}+k_b u_{t-\Delta t}+\frac{k_a-k_b}{\alpha} s_t e^{-2\alpha u_0} + f_0 s_t-f_{t-\Delta t}\right)\right]. }[/math]
