    How do I know when to use the Mesh Current Method or Node Voltage Method?

    These two methods seem like they can be applied to the same situations, and I don't really know when I should apply one over the other. I've only just learned the methods so I'm not very familiar with either though. I'd appreciate any help from general guidelines to specific examples.

    Is Titanium the Solution for Rust-Proof Solar Panel Mesh?

    I'm having trouble finding a suitable material to keep critters from nesting under our solar panels. Galvanized steel mesh oxidizes quickly because being attached to the solar modules, and plastic mesh just isn't strong enough and looks unsightly. I need a steel or metal mesh that will not...

    How do classical and quantum mesh?

    I have a question for the enlightened minds. In physics class we found our debrouille (sp?) wavelength, we found that an average human gives a ridiculously small wavelength. H/p. Now what happens when you do this to an electric current in an exposed wire? (6.626E(-34) m2 kg /...

    Mesh Analysis - confusion on writing equations

    I'm quite confused by mesh analysis. I understand that the idea is basically to apply KVL to each mesh. For example, if you have a loop that contains, say, a 3ohm and 2ohm resistor, and that's it, what is the correct KVL equation? Is it simply 0=3I+2I? As another example, check out this...
