Electric Circuits. DC and AC Steady State
Detalii
Description
What distinguishes this primer in Electric Circuits notably is the carefully chosen large number of worked out numerical examples and quite a few proposed ones, distributed all over the text. This attribute consolidates the theory while also bringing a solid feeling of magnitudes, so indispensable in engineering. The approach is from simple to complex characterized by notable clarity, such that the diligent student could assimilate it whitout strong difficulties, though math is all over the place, as anywhere in electrical engineering.
