Encyclopedia > Distributed element model

The distributed element model or transmission line model of electronic circuits assumes that each circuit element is finite, as opposed to infinitesimal, and that the wires connecting elements are not perfect conductors -- that is, they have impedance. The model challenges the lumped element model by assuming non-uniform current along each branch and non-uniform voltage along each node.


This model is more accurate but more complex than the lumped element model, so it is usually only applied to circuits with wires longer than a few wavelengths of the circuit's operating frequency, transmission lines being the most common.

guiStuff - The CSS Box Model (1721 words)
All visual elements within a page are considered to be rectangular boxes, each with its own padding, border, and margin properties.
element is actually the ancestor of all of the document's elements).
Hence, when assigning percentage values to the width and height properties of non-absolutely-positioned elements, these percentages are of the corresponding width and height of that element's containing (parent) block.
Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) 1.1 (0 words)
If a header element is tagged with a SOAP mustUnderstand attribute with a value of "1", the recipient of that header entry either MUST obey the semantics (as conveyed by the fully qualified name of the element) and process correctly to those semantics, or MUST fail processing the message (see section 4.4).
Elements tagged with the SOAP mustUnderstand attribute with a value of "1" MUST be presumed to somehow modify the semantics of their parent or peer elements.
Note that rule 2 allows independent elements and also elements representing the members of arrays to have names which are not identical to the type of the contained value.
