Synopsis

The aim of this book, and its associated computer disk, is to explain the physical nature of electric and magnetic fields encountered in electrical engineering. Field problems are inherently difficult because fields are distributed in space and can exist in a vacuum devoid of matter as well as in solid material. The customary approach to field problems is through algebraic methods and the solution of equations. This book emphasizes instead a method, based on geometry, which enables the student to visualize the fields. Backed by a computer program giving visual displays, the method enables the student to attempt real problems and to use design methods. A comprehensive survey of numerical and analytical methods is provided, and examples of engineering applications are discussed.
