Providing an ideal transition from introductory to advanced
concepts, this book builds a foundation that allows electrical
engineers to confidently proceed with the development of advanced
EM studies, research, and applications. New topics include
quasistatics, vector spherical wave functions, and wave matrices.
Several application-oriented sections covering guided waves and
transmission lines, particle dynamics, shielding, electromagnetic
material characterization, and antennas have also been added.
Mathematical appendices present helpful background information in
the areas of Fourier transforms, dyadics, and boundary value
problems. Key Features Provides extensive end-of-chapter problems.
Includes numerous solved examples with detailed explanations and
interpretations. Introduces the reader to numerical
electromagnetics and integral equations. Each chapter offers an
introduction to an important application of electromagnetics.
Emphasizes fundamentals, while covering all of the important topics
in electromagnetics.
Engineering Writing by Design: Creating Formal Document of Lasting
Value, Second Edition shows how effective writing can be achieved
by thinking like an engineer. Based on the authors' combined
experience as engineering educators, the book presents a novel
approach to technical writing, positioning formal writing tasks as
engineering design problems with requirements, constraints,
protocols, standards, and customers (readers) to satisfy. Specially
crafted for busy engineers and engineering students, this
quick-reading conversational text: Describes how to apply
engineering design concepts to the writing process Explains how
engineers fall into thinking traps, and gives techniques for
avoiding them Covers the essentials of grammar, style, and
mathematical exposition Highlights topics in writing ethics,
including copyright, plagiarism, data presentation, and persuasion
Engineering Writing by Design: Creating Formal Documents of Lasting
Value, Second Edition addresses the specific combination of
thinking and writing skills needed to succeed in modern
engineering. Its mantra is: to write like an engineer, you must
think like an engineer. Featuring illustrative examples, chapter
summaries and exercises, quick-reference tables, and
recommendations for further reading, this book is packed with
valuable tips and information practicing and aspiring engineers
need to become effective writers.

Documents of Lasting Value Engineering presentations are often a
topic of frustration. Engineers complain that they don't enjoy
public speaking, and that they don't know how to address audiences
with varying levels of technical knowledge. Their colleagues
complain about the state of information transfer in the profession.
Non-engineers complain that engineers are boring and talk over
everybody's heads. Although many public speaking books exist, most
concentrate on surface issues, failing to distinguish the formal
oral technical presentation from general public speaking.
Engineering Speaking by Design: Delivering Technical Presentations
with Real Impact targets the formal oral technical presentation
skills needed to succeed in modern engineering. Providing clear and
concise instruction supported by illustrative examples, the book
explains how to avoid logical fallacies (both formal and informal),
use physical reasoning to catch mistakes in claims, master the
essentials of presentation style, conquer the elements of
mathematical exposition, and forge a connection with the audience.
Each chapter ends with a convenient checklist, bulleted summary,
and set of exercises. A solutions manual is available with
qualifying course adoption. Yet the book's most unique feature is
its conceptual organization around the engineering design process.
This is the process taught in most engineering survey courses:
understand the problem, collect relevant information, generate
alternative solutions, choose a preferred solution, refine the
chosen solution, and so on. Since virtually all engineers learn and
practice this process, it is so familiar that it can be applied
seamlessly to formal oral technical presentations. Thus,
Engineering Speaking by Design: Delivering Technical Presentations
with Real Impact is inherently valuable in that it
