SUMMARY

The forum discussion centers on locating historical electrical engineering papers by L. Thevenin, specifically "Extension of Ohm’s law to complex electromotive circuits" and "On a new theorem of dynamic electricity." The first paper, published in Annales Telegraphiques in 1883, is difficult to find, while the second paper is accessible through the Gallica BNF website. Users are encouraged to share scanned versions of these papers if available, as they are not readily accessible online.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of historical electrical engineering concepts
  • Familiarity with L. Thevenin's contributions to electrical theory
  • Basic research skills for locating academic papers
  • Knowledge of online archival resources like Gallica BNF
NEXT STEPS
  • Research how to access historical papers through Gallica BNF
  • Learn about the significance of Thevenin's theorem in electrical engineering
  • Explore other archival resources for historical scientific literature
  • Investigate the impact of Thevenin's work on modern electrical engineering practices
USEFUL FOR

Electrical engineering students, researchers in historical science literature, and anyone interested in the foundational theories of electrical engineering will benefit from this discussion.

Hello! Where can I get the following papers by L. Thevenin?

- "Extension of Ohm’s law to complex electromotive circuits" [original: "Extension de la loi d’Ohm aux circuits électromoteurs complexes"]

and

- "On a new theorem of dynamic electricity" [original: "Sur un nouveau théorème d'électricité dynamique"]

I have spent a lot of time googling these papers, but couldn't find them. Any help would be highly appreciated.
Or if anyone has these papers, he/she is requested to please upload scanned version.

That one doesn't seem to be available, but

This paper was published in Annales Telegraphiques, 3. Series, 10:222-224, 1883

If you know someone in Paris, perhaps ...

Quelle frommage!

Here is a link to the paper on Google Books:

I can't read French, but it's more of a brief note from Thevenin rather than a technical paper.
It's only about 2 and half small pages long.
