Transient Analysis Materials

1. Transient analysis examines the response of circuits containing inductors and capacitors to changes in applied voltages or currents over time. This includes both forced response, when a voltage is applied, and free response, when a voltage is removed. 2. For R-L circuits, the differential equation relating current and time can be solved. For forced response, current rises exponentially until reaching steady state. For free response, current decays exponentially when voltage is removed. 3. Similarly for R-C circuits, voltage can be related to time. For forced response, voltage rises exponentially until reaching steady state. For free response, voltage decays exponentially when it is removed.
