"A circuit analysis, a discipline of electrical engineering, finds the voltage across and current through all the circuit components provided that a circuit operates in a steady-state regime and the input signals are either dc or sinusoidal. An advanced circuit analysis does the same work but includes into consideration the transient process and any input signal, which complicates obtaining the answers drastically. A system's approach, while performing the advanced circuit analysis, focuses on finding the input-output relationship in a circuit. Therefore, this book searches the complete (transient plus steady-state) output in response to the circuit's excitation by an arbitrary input . There are two strategic objectives of this textbook: first, to focus on the fundamentals of advanced circuit analysis with the balance between a systems theoretical approach and the practical concerns in the current technological issues; second, to create a textbook that is not merely a source of information but is an instrument that will teach the readers why real-life engineering problems appear and what are the strategies and techniques for finding their solutions. Let's discuss the issues outlined above. Modern electrical engineering technology changes rapidly, whereasits theoretical foundation evolves slower. Thus, finding the right balance between theory and practice is the primary objective of academic courses. Our book offers such a balance by concentrating on the subject's fundamentals and relating these fundamentals to professional responsibilities through text discussions and-mainly-examples. Such an approach is hardly innovative since many textbooks do this. What makes our book unique is that the examples are not merely the exercises in plugging given numbers into equations but the problems those students will meet in their professional careers. Many examples are woven into the text fabric; those offered in a formal problem-solution format are accompanied by thorough discussions pinpointing the solution's advantages, drawbacks, limitations, and implications. Thus, our examples serve as essential teaching tools"--
Comprehensive textbook answering questions regarding the Advanced Circuit Analysis subject, including its theory, experiment, and role in modern and future technology
Essentials of Advanced Circuit Analysis focuses on the fundamentals of the subject with the balance of a systems theoretical approach and current technological issues. The book aims to achieve harmony between simplicity, engineering practicality, and perceptivity in the material presentation.
Each chapter presents its material on various levels of technological and mathematical difficulty. This approach broadens the potential readership and makes the book suitable for both engineering and engineering technology curricula.
Essentials of Advanced Circuit Analysis is not merely a source of information but also an instrument that will introduce our readers to real-life engineering problems—why they crop up and how they are solved. The text explains the need for a specific task, shows the possible approaches to meeting the challenge, discusses the proper method to pursue, finds the solution to the problem, and reviews the solution's correctness, the options of its obtaining, and the limitations of the methods and the results.
Essentials of Advanced Circuit Analysis covers sample topics such as:
- Traditional circuit analysis's methods and techniques, concentrating on the advanced circuit analysis in the time domain and frequency domain
- Application of differential equations for finding circuits’ transient responses in the time domain, and classical solution (integration) of circuit’s differential equation, including the use of the convolution integral
- Laplace and Fourier transforms as the main modern methods of advanced circuit analysis in the frequency domain
Essentials of Advanced Circuit Analysis is an ideal textbook for the course Advanced Circuit Analysis; it can also be assigned for electronics, signals and systems, control theory, and spectral analysis courses. It’s additionally valuable to industrial engineers who want to brush up on a specific advanced circuit analysis topic.
