SUMMARY

The discussion centers on locating the original article by B. van der Pol titled "The nonlinear theory of electric oscillations," published in the Proceedings of the IRE in September 1934. Participants seek to understand how the nonlinear potential is derived when modeling the RLC circuit that generates the Van der Pol equation. The abbreviation "Proc." is clarified to mean "Proceedings," indicating the context of the publication.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of the Van der Pol equation and its applications in electrical engineering.
  • Familiarity with RLC circuit theory and nonlinear dynamics.
  • Knowledge of academic publishing, specifically the format of journal articles and proceedings.
  • Basic research skills for locating historical academic articles online.
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the original article by B. van der Pol for insights into nonlinear oscillations.
  • Explore the derivation of the Van der Pol equation in the context of RLC circuits.
  • Study nonlinear dynamics and its applications in electrical engineering.
  • Learn about academic databases and how to access historical publications effectively.
USEFUL FOR

Electrical engineers, researchers in nonlinear dynamics, and students studying circuit theory will benefit from this discussion, particularly those interested in the historical context and applications of the Van der Pol equation.

Hello guys, I am looking for the original article of Van der Pol.

B. van der Pol, "The nonlinear theory of electric oscillations," Proc. IRE, vol. 22, pp. 1051--1086, Sept. 1934.

do you have an idea of where i can find it? (online :blushing:, or what does proc. IRE means?)

The main idea is to find out how does the non linear potential arrives when modeling the RLC circuit that generates the Van der Pol equation.

Any reference would help.

Thx guys.
