Solved Problems in Electromagnetics [Paperback]

This book presents the fundamental concepts of electromagnetism through problems with a brief theoretical introduction at the beginning of each chapter. The present book has a strong? didactic character. It explains all the mathematical steps and the theoretical concepts connected with the development of the problem. It guides the reader to understand the employed procedures to learn to solve the exercises independently.

The exercises are structured in a similar way: The chapters begin with easy problems increasing progressively in the level of difficulty. This book is written for students of physics and engineering in the framework of the new European Plans of Study for Bachelor and Master and also for tutors and lecturers.

A mathematical introduction.- Static electric field in vacuum.- Static electric field in dielectrics.- Electric current.- Magnetostatics.- Static magnetic field in presence of matter.- Methods for solving electrostatic and magnetostatic problems.- Electromagnetic induction.- Energy of the electromagnetic field.- Maxwell equations.- Motion of charged particles in electromagnetic fields.- Electromagnetic waves.- Reflection and refraction.- Wave propagation in anisotropic media.

Prof. Dr. F?lix Salazar Bloise studied Physics at the Complutense University of Madrid (1987) and received his Ph.D. degree from the Polytechnic University of Madrid (UPM) in 1992. He was awarded the Ph.D. Prize in the academic year of 1993-94, and in 2004 he won the best textbook of the year award from the General Foundation of the University (FGU). In 1995 he was appointed Associate Professor of Applied Physics at the School of Mines of Madrid (ETSIM). During the periods of 1994-95 and 1997 he was a visiting assistant researcher at the Universit?t des Saarlandes. Since 2006, he currently is a visiting Professor at Lehrstuhl f?r Messsystem-und Sensortechnik (Technische Universit?t M?nchen-TUMl³.
