Electrical Circuit Analysis: Steady State and Transient Analysis, Network Theorems, Two Port Networks

The importance of Electrical Circuit Analysis is well known in the various engineering fields. The book provides comprehensive coverage of mesh and node analysis, various network theorems, analysis of first and second order networks using time and Laplace domain, steady state analysis of a.c. circuits, coupled circuits and dot conventions, network functions, resonance and two port network parameters. The book starts with explaining the network simplification techniques including mesh analysis, node analysis and source shifting. Then the book explains the various network theorems and concept of duality. The book also covers the solution of first and second order networks in time domain. The sinusoidal steady state analysis of electrical circuits is also explained in the book. The book incorporates the discussion of coupled circuits and dot conventions. The Laplace transform plays an important role in the network analysis. The chapter on Laplace transform includes properties of Laplace transform and its application in the network analysis. The book includes the discussion of network functions of one and two port networks. The book incorporates the detailed discussion of resonant circuits. The book covers the various aspects of two port network parameters along with the conditions of symmetry and reciprocity. It also derives the interrelationships between the two port network parameters. The book uses plain and lucid language to explain each topic. Each chapter gives the conceptual knowledge about the topic dividing it in various sections and subsections. The book provides the logical method of explaining the various complicated topics and stepwise methods to make the understanding easy. The variety of solved examples is the feature of this book. The book explains the philosophy of the subject which makes the understanding of the subject very clear and makes the subject more interesting.
