Electromagnetics is the foundation of our electric technology. It describes the fundamental principles upon which electricity is generated and used. This includes electric machines, high voltage transmission, telecommunication, radar, and recording and digital computing. This book will serve both as an introductory text for graduate students and as a reference book for professional engineers and researchers. This book leads the uninitiated into the realm of numerical methods for solving electromagnetic field problems by examples and illustrations. Detailed descriptions of advanced techniques are also included for the benefit of working engineers and research students.

* Comprehensive descriptions of numerical methods
* In-depth introduction to finite differences, finite elements, and integral equations
* Illustrations and applications of linear and nonlinear solutions for multi-dimensional analysis
* Numerical examples to facilitate understanding of the methods
* Appendices for quick reference of mathematical and numerical methods employed

Understand the theory of eddy currents with this essential reference Eddy currents are electrical current loops produced when a conductor passes through a magnetic field, or is otherwise subject to a change in magnetic field direction. These currents play a significant role in many industrial processes and areas of electrical engineering. Their properties and applications are therefore a subject of significant interest for electrical engineers and other professionals. Eddy Currents: Theory, Modelling and Applications offers a comprehensive reference on eddy currents in theory and practice. It begins with an introduction to the underlying theory of eddy currents, before proceeding to both closed-form and numerical solutions, and finally describing current and future applications. The result is an essential tool for anyone whose work requires an understanding of these ubiquitous currents. Eddy Currents readers will also find: Professional insights from an author team with decades of combined experience in research and industry Detailed treatment of methods including finite difference, finite element, and integral equation techniques Over 100 computer-generated figures to illustrate key points Eddy Currents is a must-have reference for researchers and industry professionals in electrical engineering and related fields.
