Diffusion-aware voltage source: An equivalent circuit network to resolve lithium concentration gradients in active particles

Origins of the Equivalent Circuit Concept: The Voltage-Source Equivalent

The theoretical foundations of linear circuit theory rest on Maxwell’s theory of electromagnetism. In its more applied form, circuit theory rests on the key concepts of Kirchoff’s Laws, impedance, Ohm’s Law (in its most general sense by encompassing impedances), and the Principle of Superposition. From this foundation, any linear circuit can be solved: Given a specification of all sources in th...

Origins of the Equivalent Circuit Concept: The Current-Source Equivalent

As described in my previous paper [1], the voltage-source equivalent was first derived by Hermann von Helmholtz (1821–1894) in a 1853 paper [2]. Exactly thirty years later in 1883, Léon Charles Thévenin (1857–1926) published the same result [3, 4] apparently unaware of Helmholtz’s work. The generality of the equivalent source network was not appreciated until forty-three years later. Then, in 1...

Equivalent Circuit Modelling of Active Reflectarray Antenna

This paper presents equivalent circuit modeling of active planar reflectors which can be used for the detailed analysis and characterization of reflector performance in terms of lumped components. Equivalent circuit representation has been proposed for PIN diodes and liquid crystal based active planar reflectors designed within X-band frequency range. A very close agreement has been demonstrate...
