Description
Summary:Presenting innovative, promising and unconventional techniques, Post-modern Electromagnetics outlines the essential tools for the creation of numerical methods. Hafner offers a comparative analysis of the fundamental computational electromagnetics methods and proposes future adaptive strategies. Complementary to Max-1: A Visual Electromagnetics Platform, this unique text challenges current thinking and provides guidance through the solution of practical problems. Features Include:<br> * Outline of Maxwell theory from simple material properties to complex media and wave equations<br> <br> * Discussion of intelligent optimization strategies such as genetic algorithms designed to improve the performance of existing techniques<br> <br> * Applications section demonstrating solutions in statics, scattering, gratings, antenna, antenna arrays, guided waves, resonators, coupling and waveguide discontinuities<br> <br> * Explanation of the background to numerical methods showing how the various approaches to computational electromagnetics can be generalized and combined<br> Students and researchers interested in advanced numerical approaches and design engineers developing new codes for computational electromagnetics will benefit from this exploration of creative electromagnetics solutions.
