Summary

Introduction to Electromagnetic Waves with Maxwell???s Equations

Discover an innovative and fresh approach to teaching classical electromagnetics at a foundational level

Introduction to Electromagnetic Waves with Maxwell???s Equations delivers an accessible and practical approach to teaching the well-known topics all electromagnetics instructors must include in their syllabus. Based on the author???s decades of experience teaching the subject, the book is carefully tuned to be relevant to an audience of engineering students who have already been exposed to the basic curricula of linear algebra and multivariate calculus.

Forming the backbone of the book, Maxwell???s equations are developed step-by-step in consecutive chapters, while related electromagnetic phenomena are discussed simultaneously. The author presents accompanying mathematical tools alongside the material provided in the book to assist students with retention and comprehension. The book contains over 100 solved problems and examples with stepwise solutions offered alongside them. An accompanying website provides readers with additional problems and solutions. Readers will also benefit from the inclusion of:

A thorough introduction to preliminary concepts in the field, including scalar and vector fields, cartesian coordinate systems, basic vector operations, orthogonal coordinate systems, and electrostatics, magnetostatics, and electromagnetics

An exploration of Gauss??? Law, including integral forms, differential forms, and boundary conditions

A discussion of Ampere???s Law, including integral and differential forms and Stoke???s Theorem

An examination of Faraday???s Law, including integral and differential forms and the Lorentz Force Law

Perfect for third- and fourth-year undergraduate students in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, applied maths, physics, and computer science, Introduction to Electromagnetic Waves with Maxwell???s Equations will also earn a place in the libraries of graduate and postgraduate students in any STEM program with applications in electromagnetics.
