This book explores the potential for combining recent advances from three fields - metamaterials, automated optimal design and 3D printing. The role of metamaterials in innovative device design is explored, and the development of 3D printing techniques for successfully fabricating new devices from these materials is examined.

This book highlights numerical models as powerful tools for the optimal design of Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS). However, design optimization should also take into account fine-sizing effects on device behavior and therefore be based on distributed-parameter models, such as finite-element models.

Covering the development of field computation in the past forty years, this book is a concise, comprehensive and up-to-date introduction to methods for the analysis and synthesis of electric and magnetic fields.

This book examines electric and magnetic field synthesis, with special emphasis on the optimal shape design of devices when conflicting objectives are to be fulfilled. It features a problem-solving approach which offers examples solved by various methods.
