This book is based on the author's experience gained in teaching Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECEN) 3030, Circuits for Non‐Majors [1] at the University of Colorado for eight years, as well as the input provided by undergraduate and graduate students, and the second author's research experience at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, whose mission is to foster groundbreaking fundamental science that enables transformational solutions for energy and environment challenges, using interdisciplinary teams and by creating advanced new tools for scientific discovery. The encouragement and support of Dipl.‐Ing. Dietrich J. Roesler, formerly with the US Department of Energy (DOE), Washington, DC, one of the first professionals initiating the research of photovoltaic power plants [2] as part of the mission, is greatly appreciated. The authors wish to express gratitude to wife/mother Wendy L. Fuchs and son/brother Franz S. Fuchs for their help in shaping and proofreading the manuscript. Lastly, the work on numerical field calculation [3] initiated by the late Professor Edward A. Erdelyi is reflected in part of this book by assisting in the visualization of magnetic fields as they occur in electric apparatus.
