Abstract :
FOR a good many years past, I have made use of an analytic method, of solving alternating-current problems, requiring simple algebra only. Inquiry appears to indicate that it has not heretofore appeared in print, or been used by others. For most purposes, it appeals to me more than any of the usual methods. With the thought that it may make a similar appeal to others, the bases of it and a few simple applications by way of illustration are given in what follows.
