This text examines applications and covers statics with an emphasis on the dynamics of engineering electromagnetics. This edition features a new chapter on electromagnetic principles for photonics, and sections on cylindrical metallic waveguides and losses in waveguides and resonators.

A clearly written introduction to the key physical and engineering principles of electromagnetics, first published in 2000.

This book, with its versatile approach, includes thorough coverage of statics with an emphasis on the dynamics of engineering electromagnetics. It integrates practical applications, numerical details, and completely covers all relevant principles. Topics include vectors and fields, Maxwell's Equations, fields and waves, electromagnetic potentials, devices, circuits, and systems, and transmission-line essentials for digital electronics. The second part of the book covers communications, guided wave principles, electronics and photonics, and radiation and antennae. A valuable resource for computer engineering and electrical engineering professionals.

This is the eBook of the printed book and may not include any media, website access codes, or print supplements that may come packaged with the bound book. Fundamentals of Electromagnetics for Electrical and Computer Engineering, First Edition is appropriate for all beginning courses in electromagnetics, in both electrical engineering and computer engineering programs. This is ideal for anyone interested in learning more about electromagnetics. Dr. N. Narayana Rao has designed this compact, one-semester textbook in electromagnetics to fully reflect the evolution of technologies in both electrical and computer engineering. This book’s unique approach begins with Maxwell’s equations for time-varying fields (first in integral and then in differential form), and also introduces waves at the outset. Building on these core concepts, Dr. Rao treats each category of fields as solutions to Maxwell’s equations, highlighting the frequency behavior of physical structures. Next, he systematically introduces the topics of transmission lines, waveguides, and antennas. To keep the subject’s geometry as simple as possible, while ensuring that students master the physical concepts and mathematical tools they will need, Rao makes extensive use of the Cartesian coordinate system. Topics covered in this book include: uniform plane wave propagation; material media and their interaction with uniform plane wave fields; essentials of transmission-line analysis (both frequency- and time-domain); metallic waveguides; and Hertzian dipole field solutions. Material on cylindrical and spherical coordinate systems is presented in appendices, where it can be studied whenever relevant or convenient. Worked examples are presented throughout to illuminate (and in some cases extend) key concepts; each chapter also contains a summary and review questions. (Note: this book provides a one-semester alternative to Dr. Rao’s classic textbook for two-semester courses, Elements of Engineering Electromagnetics, now in its Sixth Edition.)

This text provides a good theoretical understanding of the electromagnetic field equations while also treating a large number of applications. In fact, no topic is presented unless it is directly applicable to engineering design or unless it is needed for the understanding of another topic. Electric motors and transformers are used to demonstrate the ideas of magnetic forces and torques and of induction; the applications discussed include the new super-efficient electric drives, linear induction motors, and implantable transformers to power life-sustaining devices. The discussion of wave-propagation phenomena includes applications of new materials to aerospace systems, such as the so-called stealth materials, as well as the use of electromagnetic weaves for materials processing, such as grain drying with microwaves, microwave detection of explosives, and remote sensing of the earth and its resources.

Elements of Electromagnetics is designed for a first course in Electromagnetics for students towards an electrical engineering degree. This core course is usually required of all ECE majors. A split occurs in the market between professors who present vectors first and professors who present transmission lines first, Sadiku's text takes the vectors-first approach. The 5th edition is primarily focused on adding new and revised homework problems, particularly problems that focus on real-world practical examples. MATLAB exercises have been incorporated into each chapter for extended practice. Theintensive review and accuracy checking process conductedin the 4th edition will be highlighted in the preface.

The basic objective of this highly successful text--to present the concepts of electromagnetics in a style that is clear and interesting to read--is more fully-realized in this Second Edition than ever before.Thoroughly updated and revised, this two-semester approach to fundamental concepts and applications in electromagnetics begins with vector analysis--which is then applied throughout the text. A balanced presentation of time-varying fields and static fields prepares students for employment in today's industrial and manufacturing sectors.Mathematical theorems are treated separately from physical concepts.Students, therefore, do not need to review any more mathematics than their level of proficiency requires. Sadiku is well-known for his excellent pedagogy, and this edition refines his approach even further. Student-oriented pedagogy comprises: chapter introductions showing how the forthcoming material relates to the previous chapter, summaries, boxed formulas, and multiple choice review questions with answers allowing students to gauge their comprehension. Many new problems have been added throughout the text.

VI SOCRATES: I think that we ought to stress that we will write only about things that we have first hand experience in, in a coherent way that will be useful to engineers and other scientists and stressing the formulation without being too mathematical. We should write with integrity and honesty, giving reference to other authors where reference is due, but avoiding mentioning everybody just to be certain that our book is widely advertised. Above all, the book should be clear and useful. PLATO: I think we should include a good discussion of fundamental ideas, of how integral equations are formed, pointing out that they are like two dimensional shadows of three dimensional objects, ... SOCRATES: Stop there! Remember you are not 'the' Plato! PLATO: Sorry, I was carried away. ARISTOTLE: I think that the book should have many applications so that the reader can learn by looking at them how to use the method. SOCRATES: I agree. But we should be careful. It is easy to include many illustra tions and examples in a book in order to disguise its meagre contents. All examples should be relevant. ARISTOTLE: And we should also include a full computer program to give the reader if so he wishes, a working experience of the technique.

Advanced topics of research in field computation are explored in this publication. Contributions have been sourced from international experts, ensuring a comprehensive specialist perspective. A unity of style has been achieved by the editor, who has specifically inserted appropriate cross-references throughout the volume, plus a single collected set of references at the end. The book provides a multi-faceted overview of the power and effectiveness of computation techniques in engineering electromagnetics. In addition to examining recent and current developments, it is hoped that it will stimulate further research in the field.
