To cope with the rapid development in technology, engineers are dealing with complex and heterogenous systems which composed of blocks that belong to different engineering fields such as electrical, mechanical, chemical, electromechanical, fluid, thermal etc. Mechanical and electrical systems are more often go hand to hand in many industrial systems. For system analyzing and designing purpose, engineers must model and simulate the systems to investigate problems and aim for the best performance before proceeding to the manufacturing stage. In the presence of complex mechanical system blocks, electrical and electronics engineers are often facing difficulties in modeling the mechanical blocks. Although similarity between individual mechanical and electrical elements is recognized since long time, but it has not drawn deserved attention for the use in the system level. In this paper, we investigate in great details how enabling electrical and electronics engineers to easily model and analyze complex mechanical and electromechanical systems through systematic approach. For this objective, thirteen rules are set, established, and elaborated on how to find the electrical circuit equivalent of a given mechanical or electromechanical system in order to be modelled and analyzed. The proposed approach is tested on both complex translational mechanical and electromechanical systems which includes a rotational mechanical system. Findings demonstrate that models generated by the equivalent of electric circuits are matching the models of existing mechanical and electromechanical system by 100%. The proposed systematic approach is promising and can be widely implemented in several industrial fields.
