Electrical Engineering Computational Methods for Electromagnetics A volume in the IEEE/OUP Series on Electromagnetic Wave Theory Donald G. Dudley, Series Editor Computational Methods for Electromagnetics is an indispensable resource for making efficient and accurate formulations for electromagnetics applications and their numerical treatment. Employing a unified and coherent approach that is unmatched in the field, the authors detail both integral and differential equations using the method of moments and finite-element procedures. In addition, readers will gain a thorough understanding of numerical solution procedures. Topics covered include: Two- and three-dimensional integral equation/method-of-moments formulationsOpen-region finite-element formulations based on the scalar and vector Helmholtz equationsFinite difference time-domain methodsDirect and iterative algorithms for the solution of linear systemsError analysis and the convergence behavior of numerical resultsRadiation boundary conditionsAcceleration methods for periodic Green' s functionsVector finite elementsDetail is provided to enable the reader to implement concepts in software and, in addition, a collection of related computer programs are available via the Internet. Computational Methods for Electromagnetics is designed for graduate-level classroom use or self-study, and every chapter includes problems. It will also be of particular interest to engineers working in the aerospace, defense, telecommunications, wireless, electromagnetic compatibility, and electronic packaging industries. About the IEEE/OUP Series on Electromagnetic Wave Theory Formerly the IEEE Press Series onElectromagnetic Waves, this joint series between IEEE Press and Oxford University Press offers outstanding coverage of the field, with new titles as well as reprintings and revisions of recognized classics that maintain long-term archival significance in electromagnetic wav
