Introduction To Engineering Electromagnetics

This text provides students with the missing link that can help them master the basic principles of electromagnetics. The concept of vector fields is introduced by starting with clear definitions of position, distance, and base vectors. The symmetries of typical configurations are discussed in detail, including cylindrical, spherical, translational, and two-fold rotational symmetries. To avoid serious confusion between symbols with two indices, the text adopts a new notation: a letter with subscript 1-2 for the work done in moving a unit charge from point 2 to point 1, in which the subscript 1-2 mimics the difference in potentials, while the hyphen implies a sense of backward direction, from 2 to 1. This text includes 300 figures in which real data are drawn to scale. Many figures provide a three-dimensional view. Each subsection includes a number of examples that are solved by examining rigorous approaches in steps. Each subsection ends with straightforward exercises and answers through which students can check if they correctly understood the concepts. A total 350 examples and exercises are provided. At the end of each section, review questions are inserted to point out key concepts and relations discussed in the section. They are given with hints referring to the related equations and figures. The book contains a total of 280 end-of-chapter problems.

This book provides students with a thorough theoretical understanding of electromagnetic field equations and it also treats a large number of applications. The text is a comprehensive two-semester textbook. The work treats most topics in two steps – a short, introductory chapter followed by a second chapter with in-depth extensive treatment; between 10 to 30 applications per topic; examples and exercises throughout the book; experiments, problems and summaries. The new edition includes: modifications to about 30-40% of the end of chapter problems; a new introduction to electromagnetics based on behavior of charges; a new section on units; MATLAB tools for solution of problems and demonstration of subjects; most chapters include a summary. The book is an undergraduate textbook at the Junior level, intended for required classes in electromagnetics. It is written in simple terms with all details of derivations included and all steps in solutions listed. It requires little beyond basic calculus and can be used for self-study. The wealth of examples and alternative explanations makes it very approachable by students. More than 400 examples and exercises, exercising every topic in the book Includes 600 end-of-chapter problems, many of them applications or simplified applications Discusses the finite element, finite difference and method of moments in a dedicated chapter

A clearly written introduction to the key physical and engineering principles of electromagnetics, first published in 2000.

Electromagnetism for Engineers: An Introductory Course, Third Edition covers the principles of electromagnetism. The book discusses electric charges at rest; steady electric currents; and the magnetic field of steady electric currents. The text also describes electromagnetic induction; the magnetic effects of iron; and electromagnetic radiation. Mechanical and other kinds of engineers and engineering students who need knowledge on electromagnetism will find the book invaluable.

Electromagmetics for Engineering Students is a textbook in two parts, Part I and II, that cover all topics of electromagnetics needed for undergraduate students from vector analysis to antenna principles. In both parts of the book, the topics are presented in sufficient details such that the students will follow the analytical development easily. Each chapter is supported by many illustrative examples, solved problems, and the end of chapter problems to explain the principles of the topics and enhance the knowledge of the student. There are a total of 681 problems in the both parts of the book as follows: 162 illustrative examples, 88 solved problems, and 431 end of chapter problems. This part is a continuation of Part I and focuses on the application of Maxwell's equations and the concepts that are covered in Part I to analyze the characteristics of wave propagation in half-space and bounded media including metamaterials. Moreover, a chapter has been devoted to the topic of antennas to provide readers with the fundamental concepts related to antenna engineering. The key features of this part: • In addition to the coverage of classical topics in electromagnetic normally covered in the similar available texts, this part of the book adds some advanced concepts and topics such as: • Application of multi-pole expansion for vector potentials. • More detailed analysis on the topic of waveguides including circular waveguides. • Refraction through metamaterials and the concept of negative refractive index. • Detailed and easy-to follow presentation of mathematical analyses and problems. • An appendix of mathematical formulae and functions.

Dies ist in erster Linie ein Lehrbuch und Nachschlagewerk für Studenten aller Bereiche der Elektrotechnik. Für Studienanfänger dient es als Einführung in die Theorie des Elektromagnetismus. Fortgeschrittene Studenten finden darin eine Einführung in die Mikrowellentechnik und deren Anwendungsgebiete. Die elektromagnetische und Mikrowellentechnik wird umfassend behandelt, besonders im Hinblick auf Mikrowellen- und Telekommunikationsanwendungen. Abgesehen von den Standardthemen wird auf elektromagnetisches Rechnen eingegangen auf der Basis von MathCad und finiter Elemente Methode. (01/98)

This text not only provides students with a good theoretical understanding of electromagnetic field equations but it also treats a large number of applications. No topic is presented unless it is directly applicable to engineering design or unless it is needed for the understanding of another topic. Included in this new edition are more than 400 examples and exercises, exercising every topic in the book. Also to be found are 600 end-of-chapter problems, many of them applications or simplified applications. A new chapter introducing numerical methods into the electromagnetic curriculum discusses the finite element, finite difference and moment methods.
