Extension of the Cochrun-Grabel method to allow for mutual inductances

In English The Cochrun-Grabel (C-G) method, an algorithm for finding the characteristic polynomial of a circuit containing reactances, has so far been restricted to circuits not employing mutual inductances. In this paper we present an intuitive, yet rigorous, proof of the Cochrun-Grabel method for a general RLC circuit, and we extend the method to allow the analysis of an RLC circuit containing mutual inductances
