Interdisciplinary Analogies
a: electricity ~
b: water-heat-meachanics
What:
"Electrical circuit analogies for several engineering disciplines have been developed over time. These are summarized in the table below prepared by Dr. Holbert. The mechanical analogy used is the mobility analogy in which the physical analogies are sacrificed in favor of creating equivalent mathematical relationships which hold in network analysis."
The linked page contains a table that mathematically relates electricity to mechanical, hydraulic and thermal energy.
