A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The numerical approximation of Maxwell's equations, Computational Electromagnetics (CEM), has emerged as a crucial enabling technology for radio-frequency, microwave and wireless engineering. The three most popular 'full-wave' methods - the Finite Difference Time Domain Method, the Method of Moments and the Finite Element Method - are introduced in this book by way of one or two-dimensional problems. Commercial or public domain codes implementing these methods are then applied to complex, real-world engineering problems, and a careful analysis of the reliability of the results obtained is performed, along with a discussion of the many pitfalls which can result in inaccurate and misleading solutions. The book will empower readers to become discerning users of CEM software, with an understanding of the underlying methods, and confidence in the results obtained. It also introduces readers to the art of code development. Aimed at senior undergraduate/graduate students taking CEM courses and practising engineers in the industry.

DAVID DAVIDSON received his PhD in 1991 from the University of Stellenbosch in South Africa where he is currently a Professor in the department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering. He has also been a visiting scholar at the University of Arizona, a visiting fellow at Trinity College, Cambridge and was a guest Professor at the International Research Centre for Telecommunications-Transmission and Radar at the Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands. He has authored or co-authored 38 papers in refereed journals and co-edits the EM Programmer's Notebook column in the IEEE Antennas and Propagation magazine. David is a member of the IEEE, ACES, and SAIEE and served as chairman of the South African IEEE AP/MTT Chapter from 1996-8. He also served as the national convener of the NRF's Engineering Assessment Committee in 2002 and is the Principal Grantholder of the HF Electromagnetic and Electronic Engineering research consortium, funded by the NRF.
