For constant or dual valued circuit parameters, examples of waveform characteristics are presented. Limitations of this constant parameter approach are discussed, and suggestions made for application of the equations for simulating nonlinear source and discharge behavior.", pages = "70-77", url = "http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/sas/sas/1981/00000035/00000001/art00011", doi = "doi:10.1366/0003702814731950", keyword = "Spark source, Simulation, Emission spectroscopy, Differential equations, Circuit analysis" }
