Cipparrone, Flavio A. M.; Consonni, Denise – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2022
Contribution: Two general rules for calculating, in the time domain, step discontinuities of voltages and currents in electric circuits, combining physical principles and basic mathematical treatment. The two general rules, resulting from a formal method of analysis, provide a straightforward way to update the states of a circuit, immediately…

Crouch, Rosalind; Haines, Christopher – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2004
Applications in engineering, science and technology within undergraduate programmes can be difficult for students to understand. In this paper, new results are presented which go some way to demonstrate and explain the problems faced by students in linking mathematical models to real-world applications. The study is based on student responses to…
