  • Abstract
    THE ELECTRIC analogue computer is a device for solving problems involving single-valued nonlinear parameters. Although it was built primarily for the purpose of analyzing magnetic circuits, its application can be extended to cover the solutions of other nonlinear systems. The use of the photo cell as a nonlinear element for representing nonlinear parameters of a system makes the computer relatively simple in design and easy to operate.
