  2. Diode modelling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diode_modelling

    When more accuracy is desired in modelling the diode's turn-on characteristic, the model can be enhanced by doubling-up the standard PWL-model. This model uses two piecewise-linear diodes in parallel, as a way to model a single diode more accurately. PWL Diode model with 2 branches. The top branch has a lower forward-voltage and a higher ...

  3. Nodal analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nodal_analysis

    Nodal analysis is essentially a systematic application of Kirchhoff's current law (KCL) for circuit analysis. Similarly, mesh analysis is a systematic application of Kirchhoff's voltage law (KVL). Nodal analysis writes an equation at each electrical node specifying that the branch currents incident at a node must sum to zero (using KCL). The ...

  4. Pipe network analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_network_analysis

    To satisfy the Kirchhoff's second laws (2), we should end up with 0 about each loop at the steady-state solution. If the actual sum of our head loss is not equal to 0, then we will adjust all the flows in the loop by an amount given by the following formula, where a positive adjustment is in the clockwise direction.

  5. Unit commitment problem in electrical power production

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_Commitment_Problem_in...

    In the single bus approximation the grid is ignored: demand is considered to be satisfied whenever total production equals total demand, irrespective of their geographical location. In the DC approximation only Kirchhoff's current law is modeled; this corresponds to reactive power flow being neglected, the voltage angles differences being ...

  6. Mesh analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesh_analysis

    A more general technique, called loop analysis (with the corresponding network variables called loop currents) can be applied to any circuit, planar or not [citation needed]. Mesh analysis and loop analysis both make systematic use of Kirchhoff’s voltage law to arrive at a set of equations guaranteed to be solvable if the circuit has a ...

  7. Kirchhoff's circuit laws - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirchhoff's_circuit_laws

    The current entering any junction is equal to the current leaving that junction. i 2 + i 3 = i 1 + i 4. This law, also called Kirchhoff's first law, or Kirchhoff's junction rule, states that, for any node (junction) in an electrical circuit, the sum of currents flowing into that node is equal to the sum of currents flowing out of that node; or equivalently:

  8. Kirchhoff–Love plate theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirchhoff–Love_plate_theory

    The Kirchhoff–Love theory of plates is a two-dimensional mathematical model that is used to determine the stresses and deformations in thin plates subjected to forces and moments. This theory is an extension of Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and was developed in 1888 by Love [1] using assumptions proposed by Kirchhoff. The theory assumes that a ...
