    Italian physicist and electrical engineer Galileo Ferraris publishes a paper on the induction motor, and Serbian-American engineer Nikola Tesla gets a US patent on the same device [4] [5] 1890: Thomas Alva Edison invents the fuse: 1893: During the Fourth International Conference of Electricians in Chicago, electrical units were defined 1893

  3. Landauer formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landauer_formula

    A generalization of the Landauer formula for multiple terminals is the Landauer–Büttiker formula, [5] [4] proposed by Markus Büttiker [].If terminal has voltage (that is, its chemical potential is and differs from terminal chemical potential), and , is the sum of transmission probabilities from terminal to terminal (note that , may or may not equal , depending on the presence of a magnetic ...

  4. Memristor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memristor

    A memristor (/ ˈ m ɛ m r ɪ s t ər /; a portmanteau of memory resistor) is a non-linear two-terminal electrical component relating electric charge and magnetic flux linkage.It was described and named in 1971 by Leon Chua, completing a theoretical quartet of fundamental electrical components which also comprises the resistor, capacitor and inductor.

  5. Electrical resistance and conductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resistance_and...

    Also called chordal or DC resistance This corresponds to the usual definition of resistance; the voltage divided by the current R s t a t i c = V I. {\displaystyle R_{\mathrm {static} }={V \over I}.} It is the slope of the line (chord) from the origin through the point on the curve. Static resistance determines the power dissipation in an electrical component. Points on the current–voltage ...

  6. Mathematics of three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_three-phase...

    The plotted line represents the variation of instantaneous voltage (or current) with respect to time. This cycle repeats with a frequency that depends on the power system. In electrical engineering, three-phase electric power systems have at least three conductors carrying alternating voltages that are offset in time by one-third of the period ...

    This is in contrast to R m (in Ω·m 2) and C m (in F/m 2), which represent the specific resistance and capacitance respectively of one unit area of membrane (in m 2). Thus, if the radius, a , of the axon is known, [ b ] then its circumference is 2 πa , and its r m , and its c m values can be calculated as:

  8. Spitzer resistivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spitzer_resistivity

    The Spitzer resistivity (or plasma resistivity), also called 'Spitzer-Harm resistivity', is an expression describing the electrical resistance in a plasma, which was first formulated by Lyman Spitzer in 1950. [1] [2] The Spitzer resistivity of a plasma decreases in proportion to the electron temperature as /.

  9. Equivalent circuit model for Li-ion cells - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_circuit_model...

    The equivalent-circuit model is used to simulate the voltage at the cell terminals when an electric current is applied to discharge or recharge it. The most common circuital representation consists of three elements in series: a variable voltage source, representing the open-circuit voltage (OCV) of the cell, a resistor representing ohmic internal resistance of the cell and a set of resistor ...
