Electromagnetic Boundary Problems (pdf)

Description

Electromagnetic Boundary Problems introduces the formulation and solution of Maxwell’s equations describing electromagnetism. Based on a one-semester graduate-level course taught by the authors, the text covers material parameters, equivalence principles, field and source (stream) potentials, and uniqueness, as well as:

• • Provides analytical solutions of waves in regions with planar, cylindrical, spherical, and wedge boundaries

• • Explores the formulation of integral equations and their analytical solutions in some simple cases

• • Discusses approximation techniques for problems without exact analytical solutions

• • Presents a general proof that no classical electromagnetic field can travel faster than the speed of light

• Features end-of-chapter problems that increase comprehension of key concepts and fuel additional research,,,
