Mechanical analog of an over-damped Josephson junction

An over-damped pendulum can be adopted as a mechanical analogue of an over-damped Josephson junction (JJ). The basic equations leading to the driving torque versus the time average of the angular frequency are studied. The mechanical analogue can be used to provide additional insight into the curren...

Summary:An over-damped pendulum can be adopted as a mechanical analogue of an over-damped Josephson junction (JJ). The basic equations leading to the driving torque versus the time average of the angular frequency are studied. The mechanical analogue can be used to provide additional insight into the current-voltage characteristics of over-damped JJs.
