Abstract

Matrices have a lot of applications in all areas of human endeavour. In fact, the use of matrices in modelling engineering networks has made matrices an essential part of research in the fields of science and engineering. In this paper, we used nodal and mesh incidence matrices to construct electrical networks. This thereby results in the characterization of connections in electrical networks and modelling of net of roads connecting cities.
