Download or read book Demystifying Electromagnetic Equations written by Douglas L. Cohen and published by SPIE-International Society for Optical Engineering. This book was released on 2001 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In classical Newtonian mechanics, equations and formulas never change form. The same thing cannot be said about the equations and formulas of electromagnetic theory, which often change form when converted from one system of units to another. This work aims to provide the technical professional with an explanation of how to convert electromagnetic equations from one system of units to another. The level is geared to professionals and students who have a sound understanding of electricity and magnetism. It explains all five systems of electromagnetic units in depth, four connected to the centimetre-gram-second (cgs) system of mechanical units and one connected to the metre-kilogram-second (mks) system of mechanical units - commonly called the Systeme International.

This book was released on 2013-03-07 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This tract is based on lecture notes for a course in mechanics that has been offered at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute on and off for the past twenty years. The course is intended to provide graduate students in mechanics with an understanding of electromagnetism and prepare them for studies on the interaction of the electric and magnetic fields with deformable solid continua. As such, it is imperative that the distinction between particle and continuum descriptions of matter be carefully made and that the distinction between that which is inherently linear and that which is intrinsically nonlinear be clearly delineated. Every possible effort has been made on my part to achieve these ends. I wish to acknowledge the contributions of a number of students and faculty who attended the lectures over the years and who, by their questions and suggestions, significantly improved some of the sections. This preface would not be complete if I did not point out that my interest in electromagnetism was initiated and my attitude towards the development of the equations was influenced by lectures given by the late Professor R.D. Mindlin at Columbia University in the late nineteen fifties. I would like to thank Professor C. Truesdell for his helpful suggestions, which I feel significantly improved the clarity and readability of the Introduction, and Dr. M.G. Ancona for his comment concerning the clarity of an important point in Sec. 1.1.

Download or read book Demystifying Electricity written by M. L. Coleman, Jr. and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2005-01-07 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This profound challenge to some of the most fundamental orthodoxies of modern nuclear physics grew from its author's discovery that, for all its success and sophistication, atomic theory has failed to provide a coherant explanation for the everyday phenomenon of electricity. M.L. Coleman located the source of the problem in the assumption that there are two different atomic particles carrying electrical charges, the electron with a negative charge and a position with a positive charge. The author boldly argues that there is, in fact, only one such particle, carrying both charges. He christens this single particle the "Eptron" A largely self educated scientist, Mr. Coleman remains a proud heir to the classical tradition stemming from Newton and clearly demonstrates how nuclear theory has failed to make sense of the basic phenomena of electricity, magnetism, and gravity which puzzled and inspired early physicists. The author reached his revolutionary conclusions by combining his mastery of both classical and modern theory with, in his own words, "A little common sense." Of course, a great deal of arduous research, creative experiment, and complex methematical thought to confirm his arguments. With rigor and clarity, he shows not only that the hypothesis of the Eptron is more elegant and economical than that of the seperate electrons and positrons, but also that it makes both direct and alternating current explicable for the first time in terms of nuclear physics. "All I have done," he explains with disarming honesty, "Is explain how electricity works." Eptron theory involves a radical new understanding not just of electricity, but of light itself. Through collisions with oneanother, Eptrons are transformed into photons and then back into Eptrons by the process of expansion and contraction which the eye perceives as light. While the higher reaches of his mathematics are addressed to the scientific community, the book as a whole is designed for laymen as well, and they will learn an enormous amount along the way, not just about Eptrons, but also about the history of Physics. "Demystifying Electricity" throws down a gauntlet to modern science that it cannot afford to ignore and reclaims nuclear theory in the name of common sense. "If my work is made available to young chemists, physicists, and electrical engineers," the author asserts with justifiable pride," I believe they will study it and find it correct."
Download or read book Intermediate Electromagnetic Theory written by Stewart Joseph V and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 2001-02-22 with total page 756 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This invaluable text has been developed to provide students with more background for the applications of electricity and magnetism particularly in optics and topics related to research instrumentation. For example, waveguides (both conducting and dielectric) are discussed more thoroughly than in most texts because they are an important laboratory tool and important components of modern communications. The text, therefore, modernizes the topics covered in a typical electricity and magnetism text. Because this approach requires an understanding of the mathematics relevant to the topics, the text includes a much more thorough discussion of the mathematics of electricity and magnetism than found in current texts. It provides a solid background for students who need knowledge of electricity and magnetism, particularly physics majors./a

Download or read book Integral Equation Methods for Electromagnetic and Elastic Waves written by Weng Cho Chew and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2009 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integral Equation Methods for Electromagnetic and Elastic Waves is an outgrowth of several years of work. There have been no recent books on integral equation methods. There are books written on integral equations, but either they have been around for a while, or they were written by mathematicians. Much of the knowledge in integral equation methods still resides in journal papers. With this book, important relevant knowledge for integral equations are consolidated in one place and researchers need only read the pertinent chapters in this book to gain important knowledge needed for integral equation research. Also, learning the fundamentals of linear elastic wave theory does not require a quantum leap for electromagnetic practitioners. Integral equation methods have been around for several decades, and their introduction to electromagnetics has been due to the seminal works of Richmond and Harrington in the 1960s. There was a surge in the interest in this topic in the 1980s (notably the work of Wilton and his coworkers) due to increased computing power. The interest in this area was on the wane when it was demonstrated that differential equation methods, with their sparse matrices, can solve many problems more efficiently than integral equation methods. Recently, due to the advent of fast algorithms, there has been a revival in integral equation methods in electromagnetics. Much of our work in recent years has been in fast algorithms for integral equations, which prompted our interest in integral equation methods. While previously, only tens of thousands of unknowns could be solved by integral equation methods, now, tens of millions of unknowns can be solved with fast algorithms. This has prompted new enthusiasm in integral equation methods.

Download or read book The Theory of Electromagnetism written by D. S. Jones and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 824 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Theory of the Electomagnetism covers the behavior of electromagnetic fields and those parts of applied mathematics necessary to discover this behavior. This book is composed of 11 chapters that emphasize the Maxwell's equations. The first chapter is concerned with the general properties of solutions of Maxwell's equations in matter, which has certain macroscopic properties. The succeeding chapters consider specific problems in electromagnetism, including the determination of the field produced by a variable charge, first in isolation and then in the surface distributions of an antenna. The next two chapters are concerned with the effects of surrounding the medium by a perfectly conducting boundary as in a cavity resonator and as in a waveguide. Other chapters are devoted to discussions on the effect of a plane interface where the properties of the medium change discontinuously; the propagation along cylindrical surfaces; the study of the waves scattered by objects both with and without edges. This book further reviews the harmonic waves and the difficulties involved in going from harmonic waves to those with a more general time dependence. The final chapter provides some information about the classical theory of electrons, magneto-hydrodynamics and waves in a plasma. This book will prove useful to physicists, and physics teachers and students.
Download or read book Demystifying Climate Models written by Andrew Gettelman and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-09 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demystifies the models we use to simulate present and future climates, allowing readers to better understand how to use climate model results. In order to predict the future trajectory of the Earth’s climate, climate-system simulation models are necessary. When and how do we trust climate model predictions? The book offers a framework for answering this question. It provides readers with a basic primer on climate and climate change, and offers non-technical explanations for how climate models are constructed, why they are uncertain, and what level of confidence we should place in them. It presents current results and the key uncertainties concerning them. Uncertainty is not a weakness but understanding uncertainty is a strength and a key part of using any model, including climate models. Case studies of how climate model output has been used and how it might be used in the future are provided. The ultimate goal of this book is to promote a better understanding of the structure and uncertainties of climate models among users, including scientists, engineers and policymakers.
