hey everybody!...sorry for the stupid question...Can you use Thevenin, Norton, superposition and Node analisys in RLC circuits?...if so...could you pass some examples circuits?...Thanks!
 
for example...i have this circuit i got from Industrial Electronics by Timothy Millman...can the components values be calculated using Nodal Analysis, or thevenin, or supersposition?... would it be??...what if i assume RL as a DC motor? (has some inductance and resistance)...so technically the circuit would have RLC components...

You might pay attention to the fact that the ECG 5414 is a SCR.
But, barring max current limitations of the SCR the RLC characteristics of the motor are not important to the circuit operation.
