Definition

A linear‑algebraic procedure that eliminates a subset of internal network nodes from an admittance or impedance matrix by performing a Schur complement on the matrix block associated with eliminated nodes, producing a reduced‑order matrix that preserves the exact terminal (retained‑node) linear steady‑state electrical behavior under the assumptions of linearity and nonsingularity of the eliminated
