Abstract
THE literature on the subject of operational circuit analysis is now quite extensive. Authors are simplifying and developing the methods introduced by Oliver Heaviside in his “Electrical Papers” and in his “Electromagnetic Theory”. Yet beyond a recent paper published by Dr. Sumpner in the June number of the Proceedings of the Physical Society, there are few books or papers which explain these methods in a way that can be understood by physicists and engineers. Some use these methods without understanding in the least the mathematics of the differential equations on which they are based; they are, in fact, simply computers.
