Author Description

Using a vectors-first approach, Elements of Electromagnetics, Sixth Edition, explains electrostatics, magnetostatics, fields, waves, and applications like transmission lines, waveguides, and antennas. The book also provides a balanced presentation of time-varying and static fields, preparing students for employment in today's industrial and manufacturing sectors.Streamlined to facilitate student understanding, Elements of Electromagnetics, Sixth Edition, features worked examples in every chapter that explain how to use the theory presented in the text to solve different kinds of problems. It also covers numerical methods, including MATLAB and vector analysis, to help students analyze situations that they are likely to encounter in industry practice.The fully revised and updated sixth edition now features:*Fifteen new "Application Notes" that explain the connections between concepts discussed in the text and the real world*A math assessment that enables instructors to gauge their students' mathematical knowledge and preparedness for the course*Coverage of wave polarization (Chapter 10)*New and updated end-of-chapter problemsA companion website for the book is available at http://www.oup.com/us/sadiku and features PowerPoints of every image in the text.
