"... a very good set of analytical methodologies useful for solving
electromagnetic problems. It could be used as a textbook for a
separate, elective, senior-level course for students in electrical
engineering departments. ... This book fills the gap in the current
educational infrastructure."
—Marian K. Kazimierczuk, Wright State University, Dayton, Ohio,
USA"This text lays out in lavish detail classical analytic methods
for solving second order partial differential equations in
cartesian, cylindrical, and spherical geometries. Its singular
strength is showing many of the steps in derivations, rather than
just a few highlights."
—John D. Sahr, Electrical Engineering Department, University of
Washington, Seattle, USA"Overall, I appreciate the authors’ intent
for the book, and their carefully selected analysis techniques and
specific example problems. The mathematical techniques for solving
the partial differential equations are straightforward and present
a set of analysis methods that can be used to solve a wide variety
of problems. The example solutions are rigorous and easy to follow
given the foundations in chapter 2 and 3. I could see this book as
a course textbook in beginning graduate courses on electromagnetics
or as a desktop reference."
—Michael A. Saville, PhD, PE, Wright State University, Dayton,
Ohio, USA"... an essential textbook for anyone working with
computations in electromagnetics. ... The book is very well written
with a logical organization of the material into six chapters. The
approach is pedagogical and there are detailed illustrations, in
fact, around 100 of them. Applications of methods are illustrated
with a variety of problems. Key references are provided at the end
of each chapter. Each chapter is ended with a group of problems for
exercise. The book provides a strong theoretical foundation for
senior undergraduate students or graduate students and practicing
engineers in analytical techniques in electromagnetics."
—Rajeev Thottappillil, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden"As
computer software for electromagnetic problems becomes ubiquitous,
analytical solutions of these problems become indispensable for the
validation and verification process. This book addresses the
classical methods of solution by separation of variables. The book
serves as a perfect introduction to the solution of the partial
differential equation in the classical coordinate systems. To
further widen the solution methods, the conformal mappings and
perturbation methods are introduced. The generalized Fourier method
is employed without too much mathematical artillery. Indeed, the
focus is on the applications of the method. The text is
comprehensive, and numerous examples illustrate the line of
thought, which makes the text easy to follow."
—Gerhard Kristensson, Department of Electrical and Information
Technology, Lund University, Sweden
