Synopsis

Designed and written as a first course in electromagnetism, this text will meet the requirements of students of electrical and electronic engineering, electronic materials, physics and other engineering and science based courses. The author places emphasis on the grasp of physical processes, the development of models for these processes and their use in the study of engineering problems.

About this title

From the Publisher

This text, which introduces electromagnetism to students of electrical/electronic engineering and applied physics, emphasizes physical processes, the development of models for these processes and their use in the study of engineering problems. Mathematical techniques are introduced gradually and methodically. The first section of the text covers basic electrostatics and magnetostatics and develops the framework within which a vast area of applications are treated in Part Two. This second section deals with situations where the couplings between electric and magnetic fields cannot be ignored. Part Three covers composite dielectrics/stress control, actuators, classification of machine types and description of circuit components. Throughout, a major effort has been made to help students relate mathematical formalism to physical ideas and practical systems. Several solid examples are given, followed by problems and answers.
