Two systems are said to be analogous to each other if the following two
conditions are satisfied.
The two systems are physically different.
Differential equation modelling of these two systems are same.
Electrical systems and mechanical systems are two physically different
systems. There are two types of electrical analogies of translational
mechanical systems. Those are force voltage analogy and force current
analogy.

Analogous System
Analogous Systems: Electrical and
Mechanical systems possess fixed
analogy and there exist similarity between
the equilibrium equations of the two. This
allows forming such electrical systems
whose behavioral characteristics are
similar to the given mechanical system.
Such systems are known as analogous
systems.
More specifically, it is called electrical
analogous of mechanical system.

Applications
1. Control System Design:
o Analogies help design controllers for mechanical systems using techniques
developed for electrical circuits.
2. Simulation:
o Mechanical or thermal systems can be simulated using electrical circuit
equivalents.
3. Education:
o Teaching one system (e.g., electrical circuits) helps build an understanding of
other systems (e.g., mechanical systems) by leveraging analogies.
4. Signal Processing:
o Analogous systems allow signals and responses to be analyzed in frequency and
time domains uniformly.
