3-D Circuits
The Circuit Animation Toolbox for MATLAB

3D electrical and electronic circuit animations make it easier to understand how circuits work.  I created a MATLAB toolbox for contructing 3D animations, for teaching three engineering courses at Dartmouth.  The choice of the method of visualization is discussed in a paper at the 2002 meeting of the American Society for Engineering Education, available below. A second paper discusses applications to power electronics circuits

ASEE  2002 paper(pdf): Introduces the idea and discusses visualization methods.

IEEE PESC  2003 paper(pdf): Discusses applications to power electronics.
