Abstract
In electrical circuits containing one or more energy storage elements, a transient state exists whenever the circuit conditions change. A circuit containing one storage element is described as a first-order circuit or a single-energy circuit, and one containing a capacitor and an inductor is known as a second-order circuit or double-energy circuit, which is characterised by a linear differential equation containing a second-order derivative.
