商品簡介
The classic 1998 Artech House book, Quick Finite Elements for Electromagnetic Waves, has now been revised and expanded to reflect the latest developments in the field, with new discussions on finite elements in 3D, 3D resonant cavities, and 3D waveguide devices. Using clear, concise text and dozens of real-world application examples, this book/CD-ROM package enables undergraduate and graduate students to quickly and easily work out challenging microwave engineering and high-frequency electromagnetic problems using the finite element method (FEM), and provides the code and tools needed to solve the three major types of EM problems: guided propagation, scattering, and radiation. Part I is an update of the 1998 edition, containing the original bidimensional codes in FORTRAN and their newly developed MATLAB translation, plus a new set of tools for exploiting MATLAB graphical capabilities. Part II is new, with three chapters devoted to 3D finite element method problems. This part presents codes developed in FORTRAN, and provides a 3D tool library and two codes, one for resonant cavity problems and one for solving waveguide devices. Part III is an annotated bibliography of the main books and articles published on finite elements for electromagnetics. The CD-ROM contains the complete software described in the book, in FORTRAN 77 for the whole book and in MATLAB for Part I. The software has been designed to be as platform independent and as version independent as possible. The MATLAB codes make use, when possible, of freely available mathematical, mesh generators, and graphical software packages, also included on the CD-ROM.
