Impedance analogy and topology
Hi Bldg36nites, hopefully I can help you with your query concerning the impedance analogy article. If you look at the example in the article at Impedance analogy you will see that the topology of the mechanical and electrical versions are clearly not the same. The mechanical elements are rigidly joined on one side by a platform and rigidly joined on the other side by the ground. This is a parallel topology. The elements must therefore all move at the same velocity. Since velocity is made the analog of current in this model, the model in the electrical domain must have the current through each element equal. The only topology that guarantees equal current through each element is a series topology. SpinningSpark 10:37, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
