Detailed Description

Defines the function to calculate the resistance distance between two points in a Nanowire Network Connected Component.

This file contains the declaration of the function resistive_distance which computes the equivalent resistance between two nanowires in a connected component of a Nanowire Network. The measure is based on the circuital state of the network.

Note

If the two nanowires are not connected, the function returns -1 as an error value.

Function Documentation

resistive_distance()

double resistive_distance	(	const network_state	ns,
		const connected_component	cc,
		int	a,
		int	b
	)

Calculate the resistance distance between two points of a Nanowire Network Connected Component.

Parameters

[in]	ns	The Nanowire Network circuital state on which perform the measure.
[in]	cc	The Connected Component of the Nanowire Network on which perform the measure.
[in]	a	The index of the first nanowire to consider for the calculation (relative to the Connected Component).
[in]	b	The index of the second nanowire to consider for the calculation (relative to the Connected Component).

Returns

The resistance of the Nanowire Network equivalent circuit between the two points. -1 if an error occurs (e.g. if the two nanowires are not connected).
