Magnetic elastomers are the systems consisting of magnetic particles distributed in a nonmagnetic elastic matrix. We perform Molecular Dynamics Simulations to investigate the influence of particle shape, their magnetic interactions, their coupling with polymer matrix and external magnetic field on the structural and magnetic properties of these systems. In order for the results to be predictive for a realistic class of magnetic elastomers, we match simulation parameters to those obtained from theological, tomographic and magnetic measurements. Based on the qualitative agreement between simulations and experiment, we can explain asymmetry of magnetic hysteresis loops, particle orientational ordering in field and shift of the FORC diagram maxima.
