Abstract
Parallel analog circuits are introduced for the solution of systems of nonlinear algebraic equations and the integration of systems of diffe rential equations. Both simulations using HSPICE and a hardware implem entation are presented which show how the circuitry can be used to sol ve: the power flow and transient analysis problems for power systems, and the simulation of a jet engine. In all cases solutions are obtaine d in better than real time. The results are comparable in accuracy to digital solutions of the same problems.
