Fundamentals of Electromagnetics

This book is the first of two volumes which have been created to provide an understanding of the basic principles and applications of electromagnetic fields for electrical engineering students. Fundamentals of Electromagnetics Vol 1: Internal Behavior of Lumped Elements focuses upon the DC and low-frequency behavior of electromagnetic fields within lumped elements. The properties of electromagnetic fields provide the basis for predicting the terminal characteristics of resistors, capacitors, and inductors. The properties of magnetic circuits are included as well. For slightly higher frequencies for which the lumped elements are a significant fraction of a wavelength in size the second volume of this set, Fundamentals of Electromagnetics Vol 2: Quasistatics and Waves, examines how the low-frequency models of lumped elements are modified to include parasitic elements. Upon completion of understanding the two volumes of this book, students will have gained the necessary knowledge to progress to advanced studies of electromagnetics.

Dr. David Voltmer, Emeritus Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Rose[1]Hulman Institute of Technology, received his formal education at Iowa State University (BS EE), University of Southern California (MS EE), and The Ohio State University (PhD EE). Informally, Dave has learned much from his many students while teaching at Pennsylvania State University and at Rose-Hulman. Dave (aka Dr. EMAG) has taught electromagnetic fields and waves, microwaves, and antennas for nearly four decades. Throughout his teaching career, Dave has focused on improving teaching methods and developing courses to keep pace with technological advancements. Spare moments not spent with his family are occupied by long distance bicycling and clawhammer style banjo. Dave is an ASEE Fellow and an IEEE Life Senior Member.
