Abstract :
A direct method is presented for calculating the values of resistors in a network from the currents through the boundary nodes due to voltages imposed at the boundary nodes. Some numerical results of tests of this method are given for a simulated resistor network with 10 nodes per side. In all cases the largest relative error occurs near the center. The method is valid for an arbitrary finite network of any dimension greater than one
