Electromagnetic Field Theory Fundamentals
Guru and Hiziroglu have produced an accessible and user-friendly text on electromagnetics that will appeal to both students and professors teaching this course. This lively book includes many worked examples and problems in every chapter, as well as chapter summaries and background revision material where appropriate. The book introduces undergraduate students to the basic concepts of electrostatic and magnetostatic fields, before moving on to cover Maxwell's equations, propagation, transmission and radiation. Chapters on the Finite Element and Finite Difference method, and a detailed appendix on the Smith chart are additional enhancements. MathCad code for many examples in the book and a comprehensive solutions set are available at www.cambridge.org/9780521830164.
- Great introductory electromagnetics book for undergraduate students
- Lots of worked examples, problems and summaries and a comprehensive solutions set
- MathCad examples and a solutions set have also been made available
Reviews & endorsements
'… an excellent resource for both the undergraduate student and the teachers. This book could be used for a two semester undergraduate course in electrical engineering. Students will find the writing to be easy to follow and, with the many illustrations and worked out examples, useful for understanding the material being presented.'
