Gauss-Jordan Elimination Method, linear circuit systems, Matrix Inverse MethodAbstract
This study investigates the solutions of electrical current in linear circuit systems using two numerical methods implemented in MATLAB: the Matrix Inverse Method and the Gauss-Jordan Elimination Method. The objective is to analyze the effectiveness, accuracy, and computational efficiency of both techniques in solving systems of linear equations derived from Kirchhoff's laws. Several circuit models with varying levels of complexity are tested to compare results obtained from each method. The findings indicate that both methods yield consistent solutions, although differences in computational steps and processing time are observed. This research highlights the practicality of MATLAB as a powerful tool for electrical circuit analysis and provides insights into the selection of appropriate numerical methods for solving engineering problems.
