Abstract :
Simple and effective mathematical models of nonlinear circuit elements of high-current pulse generators are formulated and investigated. The feasibility of the approach is demonstrated by developing a circuit model of the fuse opening switch. The application of these mathematical models to the circuits of different generators is considered. Comparisons between simulation and experimental data are presented
