Transients for Electrical Engineers: Elementary Switched-Circuit Analysis in the Time and Laplace Transform Domains (with a touch of MATLAB®)
$59.91
Description
Book Synopsis: This book offers a concise introduction to the analysis of electrical transients aimed at students who have completed introductory circuits and freshman calculus courses. While it is written under the assumption that these students are encountering transient electrical circuits for the first time, the mathematical and physical theory is not 'watered-down.' That is, the analysis of both lumped and continuous (transmission line) parameter circuits is performed with the use of differential equations (both ordinary and partial) in the time domain, and the Laplace transform. The transform is fully developed in the book for readers who are not assumed to have seen it before. The use of singular time functions (unit step and impulse) is addressed and illustrated through detailed examples. The appearance of paradoxical circuit situations, often ignored in many textbooks (because they are, perhaps, considered 'difficult' to explain) is fully embraced as an opportunity to challenge students. In addition, historical commentary is included throughout the book, to combat the misconception that the material in engineering textbooks was found engraved on Biblical stones, rather than painstakingly discovered by people of genius who often went down many wrong paths before finding the right one. MATLAB® is used throughout the book, with simple codes to quickly and easily generate transient response curves.
Details
Are you an electrical engineering student looking for a comprehensive yet concise introduction to the analysis of electrical transients? Look no further! Our book, "Transients for Electrical Engineers: Elementary Switched-Circuit Analysis in the Time and Laplace Transform Domains (with a touch of MATLAB®)", is specifically designed for students who have completed introductory circuits and freshman calculus courses.
Unlike other textbooks, our book doesn't water down the mathematical and physical theory. We dive into the analysis of both lumped and continuous parameter circuits using differential equations in the time domain and the Laplace transform. Don't worry if you haven't seen the transform before, we provide a fully developed explanation that will strengthen your understanding.
One common hurdle in understanding transients is grasping the concept of singular time functions. But fear not, we address and illustrate the use of unit step and impulse functions through detailed examples. We believe that embracing the paradoxical circuit situations often overlooked in other textbooks is essential to challenging and expanding your knowledge.
Throughout the book, we provide historical commentary to show you that the material in engineering textbooks didn't come out of thin air. Alongside the genius minds behind the discoveries, we emphasize that they too faced numerous obstacles and made many mistakes before finding the right path.
To top it all off, we use MATLAB® to enhance your learning experience. With simple codes provided in the book, you can easily generate transient response curves, solidifying your understanding of the concepts.
Don't miss out on this invaluable resource for electrical engineering students. Expand your knowledge and excel in your studies with "Transients for Electrical Engineers: Elementary Switched-Circuit Analysis in the Time and Laplace Transform Domains (with a touch of MATLAB®)".
