Analysis of Problems in Dynamics by Electronic Circuits

Abstract

This paper describes a method for obtaining an engineering solution for integrodifferential equations of physical systems using an electronic system. The components consist of standard plug-in feed-back amplifier units. As the interconnections are wires, resistors, and capacitors, no complicated mechanical layout problem is involved and a generally flexible analyzer need not be set up, for it is a simple matter to assemble the particular circuit for any system of equations for which solutions are desired. The system should, therefore, be of interest to those involved in a study of the dynamics of physical systems.
