An authoritative view of Maxwell's Equations that takes theory to practice
Maxwell's Equations is a practical guide to one of the most remarkable sets of equations ever devised. Professor Paul Huray presents techniques that show the reader how to obtain analytic solutions for Maxwell's equations for ideal materials and boundary conditions. These solutions are then used as a benchmark for solving real-world problems. Coverage includes:
* An historical overview of electromagnetic concepts before Maxwell and how we define fundamental units and universal constants today
* A review of vector analysis and vector operations of scalar, vector, and tensor products
* Electrostatic fields and the interaction of those fields with dielectric materials and good conductors
* A method for solving electrostatic problems through the use of Poisson's and Laplace's equations and Green's function
* Electrical resistance and power dissipation; superconductivity from an experimental perspective; and the equation of continuity
* An introduction to magnetism from the experimental inverse square of the Biot-Savart law so that Maxwell's magnetic flux equations can be deduced
Maxwell's Equations serves as an ideal textbook for undergraduate students in junior/senior electromagnetics courses and graduate students, as well as a resource for electrical engineers.
This book marries the principles of solid state physics with the mathematics of time retarded solutions to Maxwell's equations. It includes the quantum mechanical nature of magnetism in thermal equilibrium with materials to explain how electromagnetic waves propagate in solid materials and across boundaries between dielectrics and insulators. The text uses electromagnetic scattering analysis to show how electromagnetic fields induce electric and magnetic multipoles in "good" conductors and how that process leads to delay, attenuation, and dispersion of signals in transmission lines. The text explains the basis for boundary conditions used with the vector forms of Maxwell's equations to describe analytic problems that can be solved by the 1st and 2nd Born approximation for real-world applications.
