Tesla's Nonlinear Oscillator-Shuttle-Circuit (OSC) Theory (T. W. Barrett)

Tesla Was Not a Crackpot. Well, was Tesla just a "nut" and totally deluded? Absolutely not! As an example, Barrett (T. W. Barrett, "Tesla's Nonlinear Oscillator-Shuttle-Circuit (OSC) Theory," Annales de la Fondation Louis de Broglie, 16(1), 1991) has rigorously shown that EM expressed in quaternions (a higher group symmetry algebra) allows shuttling and storage of potentials in circuits, and also allows additional EM functioning of Tesla's circuits that a conventional EM analysis cannot reveal. He shows that Tesla’s patented circuits did exactly this "energy shuttling", and that Tesla could thus asymmetrically dissipate his shuttled potential energy where and as he wished. We stress that Barrett is a renowned higher group symmetry electrodynamicist and one of the pioneers of ultrawideband radar.
