The Method of Lines (MOL) is a versatile approach to obtainingnumerical solutions to partial differential equations (PDEs) asthey appear in dynamic and static problems. This method, popular inscience and engineering, essentially reduces PDEs to a set ofordinary differential equations that can be integrated usingstandard numerical integration methods. Its significant advantageis that the analysis algorithms follow the physical wavepropagation and are therefore efficient. This is because the fieldson the discretisation lines are described by generalisedtransmission line (GTL) equations. With this formulation we have aconnection to the well known transmission line theory and resultingin an easy understanding.
The method of lines is a very accurate and powerful way toanalyze electromagnetic waves, enabling a full-wave solutionwithout the computational burden of pure finite element or finitedifference methods.
With Analysis of Electromagnetic Fields and Waves,Reinhold Pregla describes an important and powerful method foranalyzing electromagnetic waves. This book:
* Describes the general analysis principles for electromagneticfields.
* Includes applications in microwave, millimetre wave and opticalfrequency regions.
* Unifies the analysis by introducing generalised transmissionline (GTL) equations for all orthogonal coordinate systems and withmaterials of arbitrary anisotropy as a common start point.
* Demonstrates a unique analysis principle with the numericalstable impedance/admittance transformation and a physical adaptedfield transformation concept that is also useful for othermodelling algorithms.
* Includes chapters on Eigenmode calculations for variouswaveguides, concatenations and junctions of arbitrary number ofdifferent waveguide sections in complex devices, periodicstructures (e.g. Bragg gratings, meander lines, clystronresonators, photonic crystals), antennas (e.g. circular andconformal).
* Enables the reader to solve partial differential equations inother physical areas by using the described principles.
* Features an accompanying website with program codes inMatlab for special problems.
Analysis of Electromagnetic Fields and Waves will appealto electromagnetic field practitioners in primary and appliedresearch as well as postgraduate students in the areas ofphotonics, micro- and millimetre waves, general electromagnetics,e.g. microwave integrated circuits, antennas, integrated and fibreoptics, optoelectronics, nanophotonics, microstructures, artificialmaterials.
