Electromagnetism for Engineers (Hardcover)

Electromagnetism for Engineers

An easily accessible textbook to introduce the power of electromagnetism

Electromagnetism can be a difficult subject to grasp and to teach. Much of what we take for granted in modern life is enabled by electromagnetic effects, but it isn't always easy to understand the impact of electromagnetism compared to other areas of engineering, such as mechanics, which are more tangibly observed and felt. Although electromagnetism is a crucial and important branch of physics with elegant mathematics, many students can find the study of electromagnetism inaccessible.

It is crucial for students of electrical and electronic engineering and physics to have a strong understanding of electromagnetism and how it impacts communications, power generation and transmission, semiconductor devices, motors, and more. Electromagnetism for Engineers aims to develop a student's understanding of electromagnetism in the context of real effects and how they apply to such applications, whilst maintaining the sophistication of the mathematics that can be used to give deeper insight. It begins by describing the fundamentals of electromagnetism before a more detailed discussion of the basic concepts developed for specific application areas. It then considers the application of electromagnetism to transmission lines, antennas, and waveguides.

Electromagnetism for Engineers readers will find:

• A unique approach that illustrates the link between real-life applications and fundamental theory of electromagnetism
• Clear, concise language to help students gain a full understanding of the subject
• Carefully designed figures to illustrate points throughout the book
• Accompanying website at www.wiley.com/go/flewitt1418

Electromagnetism for Engineers has been written as a textbook for undergraduates studying electronic or electrical engineering. The manual can also be of interest to physics students and to graduate-level students desirous of having a general book on electromagnetism. It is also a useful reference for professional engineers looking for a refresher on the fundamentals of electromagnetism.

《工程師的電磁學》

一本易於理解的教材，介紹電磁學的力量

電磁學可能是一門難以理解和教授的科目。現代生活中我們所習以為常的許多事物都是由電磁效應實現的，但要理解電磁學對比其他更具觸感和實際感的工程領域（如力學）的影響並不總是容易的。儘管電磁學是物理學中一個至關重要且重要的分支，具有優雅的數學，但許多學生可能會覺得學習電磁學很難。

對於電氣和電子工程以及物理學專業的學生來說，對電磁學以及它對通信、發電和傳輸、半導體器件、馬達等的影響有著深入的理解至關重要。《工程師的電磁學》旨在在實際效應的背景下發展學生對電磁學的理解，以及這些效應如何應用於這些應用領域，同時保持可以提供更深入洞察的數學的複雜性。它首先描述了電磁學的基礎知識，然後更詳細地討論了針對特定應用領域開發的基本概念。然後，它考慮了電磁學在傳輸線、天線和波導中的應用。

《工程師的電磁學》的讀者將會找到：

- 一種獨特的方法，將現實應用與電磁學的基本理論聯繫起來
- 清晰、簡潔的語言，幫助學生全面理解這個主題
- 精心設計的圖示，以說明書中的觀點
- 附帶網站 www.wiley.com/go/flewitt1418

《工程師的電磁學》是為修讀電子工程或電氣工程的大學本科生撰寫的教材。這本手冊也對物理學專業的學生和希望獲得一本關於電磁學的通用書籍的研究生感興趣。對於尋求對電磁學基礎知識進行複習的專業工程師來說，它也是一本有用的參考書。
