Description
Co-published with Oxford University Press. A volume in the IEEE Press/OUP Electromagnetic Wave Series. Gain a thorough understanding of one of the most important simulation tools in computational electromagnetics with this comprehensive introduction to the TLM method. Written by one of the foremost researchers in the TLM method, this book covers the entire area of electromagnetics from the basic principles to advanced formulations and applications and including microwaves, antennas, RCS, electromagnetic compatibility, and electromagnetic heating, while providing a clear explanation of modeling principles from lumped components through 1, 2 and 3 dimensional complex systems.
