 erie: International Summer School Materials 4.0 - The digitally enabled at
 om to system revolution  <p>Since the publication of “The Missing Memris
 tor Found” in 2008\, there have been many thousands of papers published 
 on the topic of memristors. However\, very few of those have featured qua
 ntitative compact models of the circuit elements described. This is not a
  reflection of the maturity of the field but rather the difficulty of cons
 tructing an accurate and predictive compact mathematical model for an elec
 tronic circuit element that displays memristor behavior. This Lecture wil
 l provide a snapshot of the current state of memristor modeling. Such mod
 els are essential for designing and simulating complex integrated circuits
  that contain memristors\, and the types of applications being considered 
 are increasing significantly. Although the fundamental equations that spe
 cify the device physics may be known\, they usually comprise a set of coup
 led nonlinear integro-differential equations that are extremely challengin
 g to solve in three dimensions\, and standard multi-physics solvers may no
 t have all the components needed for an accurate model. A numerical solut
 ion of the physics equations can require supercomputers and long execution
  times\, which makes this approach useless for interactive simulation of l
 arge circuits that contain many such elements. Thus\, the equations must 
 be simplified dramatically\, and it is not always clear which terms are th
 e most important for the behavior of the device. On the other hand\, a pu
 rely black box approach of fitting a set of experimental measurements to a
  convenient functional form runs the risk of poorly representing the behav
 ior of the device in operating regimes outside the range in which the data
  were collected. Thus\, a hybrid approach is often necessary\, in which t
 he mathematical formalism for a memristor provides the framework for the m
 odel and knowledge of the device physics defines the state variable(s)\, o
 perating limits and asymptotic behavior necessary to make the model useful
 . After describing the challenge\, the art and science of constructing a m
 emristor model are illustrated by three examples: a description of a loca
 lly active and volatile device based on a thin film of niobium dioxide tha
 t undergoes both a thermal instability and an insulator to metal transitio
 n because of Joule heating\, the original description of a nonvolatile mem
 ory device based on titanium dioxide in which the effective width of an el
 ectron tunnel barrier is determined by oxygen vacancy drift caused by an a
 pplied electric field\, and the analysis of a ferromagnetic inductor as a 
 mem-differential element.</p>
