Mathematical Models in Electrical Circuits: Theory and Applications


Book Description

One service mathematics has rendered the 'Et moi ... si favait su comment en revenir, je n'y seTais point alle.' human race. It has put common sense back Jules Verne where it belongs. on the topmost shelf next to the dusty canister labelled 'discarded n- sense', The series is divergent; therefore we may be Eric T. Bell able to do something with it. O. Heaviside Mathematics is a tool for thought. A highly necessary tool in a world where both feedback and non linearities abound. Similarly, all kinds of parts of mathematics serve as tools for other parts and for other sciences. Applying a simple rewriting rule to the quote on the right above one finds such statements as: 'One service topology has rendered mathematical physics .. .'; 'One scrvice logic has rendered com puter science .. .'; 'One service category theory has rendcred mathematics .. .'. All arguably true. And all statements obtainable this way form part of the raison d'e"tre of this scries.




Mathematical Models of Electrical Network Systems


Book Description

This book is for all those who are looking for a non-conventional mathematical model of electrical network systems.

Discussing interesting concepts and practically useful methods of network analysis, it is a valuable resource for lecturers, students, engineers




Mathematical and Numerical Modelling in Electrical Engineering Theory and Applications


Book Description

Mathematical modeling plays an essential role in science and engineering. Costly and time consuming experiments (if they can be done at all) are replaced by computational analysis. In industry, commercial codes are widely used. They are flexible and can be adjusted for solving specific problems of interest. Solving large problems with tens or hundreds of thousands unknowns becomes routine. The aim of analysis is to predict the behavior of the engineering and physical reality usually within the constraints of cost and time. Today, human cost and time are more important than computer cost. This trend will continue in the future. Agreement between computational results and reality is related to two factors, namely mathematical formulation of the problems and the accuracy of the numerical solution. The accuracy has to be understood in the context of the aim of the analysis. A small error in an inappropriate norm does not necessarily mean that the computed results are usable for practical purposes.




Systems with Non-Smooth Inputs


Book Description

The authors present a completely new and highly application-oriented field of nonlinear analysis. The work covers the theory of non-smooth input-output systems and presents various methods to non-standard applications in mathematics and physics. A particular focus lies on hysteresis and relay phenomena, electric circuits with diode nonlinearities, and biological systems with constraints.




Mathematical Modeling of Physical Systems


Book Description

The book presents mathematical modelling of physical systems by combined approach based on field theory, circuit theory and signal processing. The book is broadly divided into three parts: applications of field theory, applications of circuit theory and applications of signals processing. First part contains six chapters, second part has two chapters and third part contains two chapters. First part is further decoupled into three plus three chapters, based on the common “field nature” exhibited by electromagnetic quantities and fluid quantities.




On the Mathematical Modeling of Memristor, Memcapacitor, and Meminductor


Book Description

This book introduces the basic fundamentals, models, emulators and analyses of mem-elements in the circuit theory with applications. The book starts reviewing the literature on mem-elements, models and their recent applications. It presents mathematical models, numerical results, circuit simulations, and experimental results for double-loop hysteresis behavior of mem-elements. The authors introduce a generalized memristor model in the fractional-order domain under different input and different designs for emulator-based mem-elements, with circuit and experimental results. The basic concept of memristive-based relaxation-oscillators in the circuit theory is also covered. The reader will moreover find in this book information on memristor-based multi-level digital circuits, memristor-based multi-level multiplier and memcapacitor-based oscillators and synaptic circuits.




Mathematical Modelling and Simulation of Electrical Circuits and Semiconductor Devices


Book Description

Progress in today's high-technology industries is strongly associated with the development of new mathematical tools. A typical illustration of this partnership is the mathematical modelling and numerical simulation of electric circuits and semiconductor devices. At the second Oberwolfach conference devoted to this important and timely field, scientists from around the world, mainly applied mathematicians and electrical engineers from industry and universities, presented their new results. Their contributions, forming the body of this work, cover electric circuit simulation, device simulation and process simulation. Discussions on experiences with standard software packages and improvements of such packages are included. In the semiconductor area special lectures were given on new modelling approaches, numerical techniques and existence and uniqueness results. In this connection, mention is made, for example, of mixed finite element methods, an extension of the Baliga-Patankar technique for a three dimensional simulation, and the connection between semiconductor equations and the Boltzmann equations.




Mathematical Models and Numerical Simulation in Electromagnetism


Book Description

The book represents a basic support for a master course in electromagnetism oriented to numerical simulation. The main goal of the book is that the reader knows the boundary-value problems of partial differential equations that should be solved in order to perform computer simulation of electromagnetic processes. Moreover it includes a part devoted to electric circuit theory based on ordinary differential equations. The book is mainly oriented to electric engineering applications, going from the general to the specific, namely, from the full Maxwell’s equations to the particular cases of electrostatics, direct current, magnetostatics and eddy currents models. Apart from standard exercises related to analytical calculus, the book includes some others oriented to real-life applications solved with MaxFEM free simulation software.




Mathematical Models for the Design of Electrical Machines


Book Description

This book is a comprehensive set of articles reflecting the latest advances and developments in mathematical modeling and the design of electrical machines for different applications. The main models discussed are based on the: i) Maxwell–Fourier method (i.e., the formal resolution of Maxwell’s equations by using the separation of variables method and the Fourier’s series in 2-D or 3-D with a quasi-Cartesian or polar coordinate system); ii) electrical, thermal and magnetic equivalent circuit; iii) hybrid model. In these different papers, the numerical method and the experimental tests have been used as comparisons or validations.




Electric Circuits


Book Description

Electric Circuits constitute a core course in every Electrical Engineering curiculum, with applications covering a wide area of disciplines, like Electronics, Electrical Machines, Frequency Domain Analysis, Transmission Lines, etc. In this book, we lay out the foundations, introducing fundamental principles, definitions and formulas, which are necessary for the understanding of more advanced topics. The material is presented in a clear, understandable format, while the characteristic examples and problems, accompanied by their solution, contribute immensely to a thorough comprehension of the related material.
