Nodal Analysis Optimization Based on the Use of Virtual Current Sources: A Powerful New Pedagogical Method
Chatzarakis, G. E.
IEEE Transactions on Education, v52 n1 p144-150 Feb 2009
This paper presents a new pedagogical method for nodal analysis optimization based on the use of virtual current sources, applicable to any linear electric circuit (LEC), regardless of its complexity. The proposed method leads to straightforward solutions, mostly arrived at by inspection. Furthermore, the method is easily adapted to computer implementation. (Contains 1 table and 4 figures.)
