Objectives of the Course
To provide students with the ability to understand and analyse electrical circuits, to teach basic circuit elements and their properties such as resistivity, conductivity and operational behaviors. In addition, to provide the knowledge about circuit laws and network solution theorems besides the circuit responses to various input signals and switching. Teaching time-domain, s-domain and phasor analysis of electric circuits are also among the objectives of this course besides the topics resonance and Fourier analysis. Some other objectives of the course are having the students to learn single and three-phase AC system properties.
