The present text is intended as an introduction to electromagnetics and computation of electromagnetic fields. While many texts on electromagnetics exist, the subject of computation of electromagnetic fields is nonnally not treated or is treated in a number of idealized examples, with the main emphasis on development of theoretical relations. "Why another book on Electromagnetics?" This is perhaps the first question the reader may ask when opening this book. It is a valid question, because among the many books on Electromagnetics some are excellent. We have two answers to this question, answers that have motivated the writing of this book. The first concerns the method of presentation of Electromagnetism. Generally, in classical books the material is presented in the following sequence: electrostatics, magnetostatics, magnetodynamics, and wave propagation, using integral fonns of the field equations. As a primary effect of this presentation, the reader is led to think that the knowledge of this science is synonymous to memorizing dozens offonnulas. Additionally, an impression that there is no finn connection between these equations lingers in the reader's mind since at each step new postulates are added, seemingly unrelated to previous material. Our opinion is, and we shall try to convey this to the reader, that the Electromagnetic formalism is extremely simple and based on very few equations. They are the four "Maxwell equations" which include practically all the existent relationships between the electromagnetic quantities. The only additional relationships that need be considered is the Lorentz force and the material constitutive relations.

Electromagnetics and Calculation of Fields

This book provides students with a thorough theoretical understanding of electromagnetic field equations and it also treats a large number of applications. The text is a comprehensive two-semester textbook. The work treats most topics in two steps – a short, introductory chapter followed by a second chapter with in-depth extensive treatment; between 10 to 30 applications per topic; examples and exercises throughout the book; experiments, problems and summaries. The new edition includes: modifications to about 30-40% of the end of chapter problems; a new introduction to electromagnetics based on behavior of charges; a new section on units; MATLAB tools for solution of problems and demonstration of subjects; most chapters include a summary. The book is an undergraduate textbook at the Junior level, intended for required classes in electromagnetics. It is written in simple terms with all details of derivations included and all steps in solutions listed. It requires little beyond basic calculus and can be used for self-study. The wealth of examples and alternative explanations makes it very approachable by students. More than 400 examples and exercises, exercising every topic in the book Includes 600 end-of-chapter problems, many of them applications or simplified applications Discusses the finite element, finite difference and method of moments in a dedicated chapter

This book proceedings collects ​a number of papers presented at the International Conference on Sensing and Imaging, which was held at Guangxi University of Science and Technology from October 15-18, 2018. Sensing and imaging is an interdisciplinary field covering a variety of sciences and techniques such as optics, electricity, magnetism, heat, sound, and computing technologies. The field has diverse applications of interest such as image processing techniques.The results in the book bridge the gap between theory and applications, translating techniques into better products. The text will appeal to students, professionals and researchers alike.
