Abstract
It is shown how a non‐homogeneous, non‐isotropic, electrically conductive, two‐dimensional continuum can be replaced by a network of resistors whereby the nodes of the network are situated at any arbitrarily selected points, and how Southwell's relaxation method can be applied to this network for the solution of potential problems.
