modelNonlinearResistor
Chua's resistor
Extends from Interfaces.OnePort (Component with two electrical pins p and n and current i from p to n).
Information
This is the only nonlinear component for Chua's circuit. It is a piecewise linear resistor with both an inner and an outer range, which includes the inner one. The slopes of both ranges are given by parameters. The resistance characteristic is continuous. For Chua's circuit both slopes have to be chosen to be negative.
