Abstract
Micromagnetic simulation of domain wall motion in thin, narrow strips leads to a simplified analytical model. The model accurately predicts the same domain wall velocity as full micromagnetic calculations, including dependence on strip width, thickness, and magnitude of applied field pulse. Domain wall momentum and retrograde domain wall motion are both observed and explained by the analytical model.
