INTRODUCTION
Energy storage elements – inductance and capacitance – lend memory to electrical circuits and make possible the interesting dynamic behaviour in them. The simplest of dynamic circuits will contain one such energy storage electrical element along with passive resistors and linear dependent sources. Further simplification is possible by ruling out dependent sources and limiting the resistors to one. We consider one such two-element circuit, containing one energy storage element, in detail in this chapter. Specifically, we study series and parallel RL circuits with voltage source and current source excitations of different waveshapes with and without initial energy storage in the inductance.
These circuits are simple in structure. However, ...
