From the publisher

Employed in a large number of commercial electromagnetic simulation packages, the finite element method is one of the most popular and well-established numerical techniques in engineering. This book covers the theory, development, implementation, and application of the finite element method and its hybrid versions to electromagnetics. FINITE ELEMENT METHOD FOR ELECTROMAGNETICS begins with a step-by-step textbook presentation of the finite method and its variations then goes on to provide up-to-date coverage of three dimensional formulations and modern applications to open and closed domain problems. Worked out examples are included to aid the reader with the fine features of the method and the implementation of its hybridization with other techniques for a robust simulation of large scale radiation and scattering. The crucial treatment of local boundary conditions is carefully worked out in several stages in the book.

Electrical Engineering Finite Element Method for Electromagnetics Antennas, Microwave Circuits, and Scattering Applications A volume in the IEEE/OUP Series on Electromagnetic Wave Theory Donald G. Dudley, Series Editor Employed in a large number of commercial electromagnetic simulation packages, the finite element method is one of the most popular and well-established numerical techniques in engineering. This book covers the theory, development, implementation, and application of the finite element method and its hybrid versions to electromagnetics. Finite Element Method for Electromagnetics begins with a step-by-step presentation of the finite element method and its variations, and then provides up-to-date coverage of three-dimensional formulations and modern applications to open- and closed-domain problems. Topics covered include:

Galerkin's and Ritz methods
One- and two-dimensional theory and applications
Three-dimensional development of the method using edge elements and applications
Mesh truncation schemes
Matlab sample codes
Efficient implementation of the finite element method, sparse matrix storage schemes, popular iterative solvers, eigenvalue solutions
Experiences on code porting to parallel computers

Integral algorithms for fast implementation of the boundary integral matrix-vector products. Written by experts who have extensive experience in both teaching and implementing this method to many applications, Finite Element Method for Electromagnetics a can be used as a textbook for first-year graduate students, as well as a handy reference for engineers and scientists interested in computational electromagnetics. About the IEEE/OUP Series on Electromagnetic Wave Theory Formerly the IEEE Press Series on Electromagnetic Waves, this joint series between IEEE Press and Oxford University Press offers outstanding coverage of the field, with new titles as well as reprintings and revisions of recognized classics that maintain long-term archival significance in electromagnetic waves and applications. Designed specifically for graduate students, practicing engineers, and researchers, this series provides affordable volumes that explore electromagnetic waves and applications beyond the undergraduate level.
