Talk:Lumped element model

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Low impedance breakdown?

I have removed a paragraph referring to a supposed failure of the lumped element model for low impedance devices. Are there any references for such a phenomena? Tomer Ish Shalom 13:52, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Lumped element is a finite element in space and time required to travel within a lumped element is considered negligible, whereas distributed element is infintesimal. I have corrected the definition.

[edit] Lumped-Element Models in Mechanical/Aerospace/...

Shouldn't there be some discussion of the use of lumped-element models in other engineering fields? I'm studying thermoacoustics right now, and I've seen many papers modeling fluid dynamics, etc. as lumped-element circuits (cf. [1], [2]). Robin Z (talk) 14:14, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
