function solvePotentialX (A:cpx, i:index ,j:index)
- Solve the potential problem of resistance in a graph.
- This functions uses the conjugate gradient method.
- A is a compressed incidence matrix.
- Return the potential u for the nodes in A,
- such that u[i]=1, u[j]=-1, and the flow
- to each knot is equal to the flow from the knot,
- and the flow from i to j is (u[i]-u[j])*A[i,j].

Here is the code for the conjugate gradient method for compressed, sparse matrices from cpx.e.
<lang> function cgX (H:cpx, b:real column, x0:real column=none, f:index=10)
- Conjugate gradient method to solve Hx=b for compressed H.
- This is the method of choice for large, sparse matrices. In most
- cases, it will work well, fast, and accurate.
- H must be positive definite. Use cpxfit, if it is not.
- The accuarcy can be controlled with an additional parameter
- eps. The algorithm stops, when the error gets smaller then eps, or
- after f*n iterations, if the error gets larger. x0 is an optional
- start vector.
- H : compressed matrix (nxm)
- b : column vector (mx1)
- x0 : optional start point (mx1)
- f : number of steps, when the method should be restarted

J
We represent the mesh as a Ybus matrix with B as the reference node and A as the first node and invert it to find the Z bus (which represents resistance). The first element of the first row of this Z matrix is the resistance between nodes A and B.
<lang J>nodes=: 10 10 #: i. 100 nodeA=: 1 1 nodeB=: 6 7
conn =: [: (#~ e.~/@|:~&0 2) ([ ,: +)"1 ref =: ~. nodeA,nodes-.nodeB wiring=: /:~ ref i. ,/ nodes conn"2 1 (,-)=i.2 Yii=: _1 _1 }. (* =@i.@#) #/.~ {."1 wiring Yij=: - _1 _1 }. 1:`(<"1@[)`]}&(+/~ 0*i.1+#ref) wiring Y=: Yii+Yij</lang>
Here, the result of nodes conn offset
represents all pairs of nodes where we can connect the argument nodes to neighboring nodes at the specified offset, and wiring
is a list of index pairs representing all connections made by all resistors (note that each connection is represented twice -- node e is connected to node f AND node f is connected to node e). Yii contains the values for the diagonal elements of the Y bus while Yij contains the values for the off diagonal elements of the Y bus.
So:
<lang J> {.{. %. Y 1.60899</lang>
Or, if we want an exact answer (this is slow), we can assume our resistors are perfect:
<lang J> {.{.%. x:Y 455859137025721r283319837425200</lang>
(here, the letter 'r' separates the numerator from the denominator)
Julia
We construct the matrix A that relates voltage v on each node to the injected current b via Av=b, and then we simply solve the linear system to find the resulting voltages (from unit currents at the indicated nodes, i and j) and hence the resistance. We can write A=DTD in terms of the incidence matrix D of the resistor graph (see e.g. Strang, Introduction to Linear Algebra, 4th ed., sec. 8.2). Because the graph is a rectangular grid, we can in turn write the incidence matrix D in terms of Kronecker products ⊗ (kron
in Julia) of "one-dimensional" D1 matrices (the incidence matrix of a 1d resistor network). We use Julia's built-in sparse-matrix solvers (based on SuiteSparse) to solve the resulting sparse linear system efficiently
<lang julia>N = 10
D1 = speye(N-1,N) - spdiagm(ones(N-1),1,N-1,N)
D = [ kron(D1, speye(N)); kron(speye(N), D1) ]
i, j = N*1 + 2, N*7+7
b = zeros(N^2); b[i], b[j] = 1, -1
v = (D' * D) \ b
v[i] - v[j]</lang>
Output:
1.6089912417307288
One advantage of this formulation is that it is easy to generalize to non-constant resistance. If we have a vector y
of admittance (1/resistance) values on each resistor, then one simply replaces D' * D
with D' * spdiagm(y) * D
.
Maxima
<lang maxima>/* Place a current souce between A and B, providing 1 A. Then we are really looking
for the potential at A and B, since I = R (V(B) - V(A)) where I is given and we want R. Atually, we will compute potential at each node, except A where we assume it's 0. Without with assumption, there would be infinitely many solutions since potential is known up to a constant. For A we will simply write the equation V(A) = 0, to keep the program simple. Hence, for a general grid of p rows and q columns, there are n = p * q nodes, so n unknowns, and n equations. Write Kirchhoff's current law at each node. Be careful with the node A (equation A = 0) and the node B (there is a constant current to add, from the source, that will go in the constant terms of the system). Finally, we have a n x n linear system of equations to solve. Simply use Maxima's builtin LU decomposition. Since all computations are exact, the result will be also exact, written as a fraction. Also, the program can work with any grid, and any two nodes on the grid.
For those who want more speed and less space, notice the system is sparse and necessarily symmetric, so one can use conjugate gradient or any other sparse symmetric solver. */
