An Attempt to Find an Empirical Model between Barkhausen Noise and Stress

A nonlinear empirical model between stress and Barkhausen noise is identified in this study. The identification procedure uses a genetic algorithm followed by a Nelder-Mead optimization procedure. The model is identified with the data set where an external load is applied to RAEX400 low alloyed hot-rolled steel samples. The results of the study show that the identified model performs well in stress predictions. The identified model includes three terms which are in accordance with the literature.
