The definitive reference on electromagnetic field, updated and expanded
This definitive text and reference on electromagnetic fields has been updated and expanded to twice its original content. It incorporates the latest methods, theory, formulations, and applications that relate to today's technologies. With an emphasis on basic principles and a focus on electromagnetic formulation and analysis, Electromagnetic Fields, Second Edition includes:
*
Detailed discussions of electrostatic fields, potential theory, propagation in waveguides and unbounded space, scattering by obstacles, penetration through apertures, and field behavior at high and low frequencies
*
Many analytical developments suitable for exploitation by the numerical analyst, including the popular method of moments
*
Comprehensive discussion of singularities of sources and fields with delineations of field properties at edges and at sector and cone vertices
*
Extensive appendices that of themselves are worth the cost of the book
*
A large, useful, carefully compiled set of references
With descriptions of methods for solving problems and with many applications of theory to electromagnetic engineering, this is a valuable resource for students, professors, and practicing engineers. It is also a comprehensive textbook for graduate-level courses in various aspects of electromagnetic theory.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
The book appears to be very well written, and is excellently edited and produced. There is no doubt that it will be received as well as its previous edition has been. (Computing Reviews, July 1, 1008)
