Why Do Electromagnetic Finite Element Analysis?
Dr Kok-Cheong (KC) Tang & David Ellis Published December 2009 Softback, 100 Pages The main objective of this book is to provide some background information on performing electromagnetic analyses using the finite element (FE) method. Although the FE method is an established technique, particularly in structural and thermal applications, the development and deployment of electromagnetic FE codes are still continuing in both industrial and academic worlds. As such there are comparatively fewer practical guides that have been published on the subject of electromagnetic analysis using the FE method than its mechanical counterpart. This book is aimed at readers who have interest and some appreciation of electromagnetic phenomena. Although knowledge and previous experience in FE analysis will be useful, they do not need to be familiar with the numerical implementation of the FE method in electromagnetism. As a useful background to solving electromagnetic problems the principles of Maxwell’s e
