Fundamentals of Applied Electromagnetics

by Fawwaz T. Ulaby, Umberto Ravaioli, Eric Michielssen

Book Overview

Fundamentals of Applied Electromagnetics is intended for use in one- or two-semester courses in electromagnetics. It also serves as a reference for engineers. Widely acclaimed both in the U.S. and abroad, this authoritative text bridges the gap between circuits and new electromagnetics material. Ulaby begins coverage with transmission lines, leading students from familiar concepts into more advanced topics and applications. A user-friendly approach,...

Very good book!

This book along with Cheng, Hayt and Buck can help you master fundamentals of electromagnetics. This book is slim compared to Cheng, but it covers all the relevant topics in undergrad EM. This book stands out in CLARITY. Ulaby explains concepts clearly using mathematical tools and later gives physical insight into it.

excellent!!!

The book was in excellent condition. the contents in the book are also written in such a way that it is easy for the students to understand. I thank my professor for selecting this book for the subject.

Having read more than one or two or ten emag books....

...this book is a great investment. Ulaby is kind enough to cover the math - THEN the subject, which unless you're proficient in vector calc, will be important. There are examples - they have answers! This is a wonderful place to start your journey into electromagnetics, particularly if you learn through doing. I really came to understand Maxwell's equations through this book. The only downside (if you could call it that) is the lack of theory, but don't worry - that'll come. You may not be able to derive Maxwell's equations but you can use'm!

Excellent

This is the best electromagnetic textbook I have read or referenced. Nearly every other current and classical EM textbook is poorly written and very abstract. Ulaby has done a fantastic job in writing an easy-to-follow book on an extremely difficult subject matter. The chapter progression is much more logical, starting with transmission lines instead of electro- and magnetostatics as in other books. It is easy to find formulas and the examples and problem sets help to strongly enforce the material. This should be a part of every electrical engineering curriculum, and as an RF engineer, I reference this book frequently.
