Short summary of the dissertation
In this thesis, they use mathematical modelling and analysis techniques to study the behaviour of electrical networks comprising resistors, memristors, and capacitors. The objective of the study is, first, to obtain more insight into the behaviour of networks constructed of these electrical components, and, second, to understand if and how these networks can be used to mimic the behaviour of neurons and synapses.
