EMI/EMC Computational Modeling Handbook, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1998

The application of computational electromagnetics to practical EMI/EMC engineering is an emerging technology. Because of the increased complexity in EMI/EMC issues resulting from advancements in electronics and telecommunications, it is no longer possible to rely exclusively on traditional techniques and tools to solve the growing list of electronic engineering design problems.
EMI/EMC Computational Modeling Handbook introduces modeling and simulation of electromagnetics to real-world EMI/EMC engineering. It combines the essentials of electromagnetics, computational techniques, and actual EMI/EMC applications. Included are such popular full-wave computational modeling techniques as the Method of Moments, Finite-Difference Time Domain Technique, Finite Element Method, and several others. The authors have included a myriad of applications for computers, telecommunications, consumer electronics, medical electronics, and military uses.
EMI/EMC Computational Modeling Handbook is an invaluable reference work for practicing EMI/EMC engineers, electronic design engineers, and any engineer involved in computational electromagnetics.

1 Introduction.- 2 Electromagnetic Theory and Modeling.- 3 The Finite-Difference Time-Domain Method.- 4 The Method of Moments.- 5 The Finite Element Method.- 6 Preparation for Modeling.- 7 Creating EMI/EMC Models.- 8 Special Topics in EMI/EMC Modeling.- 9 Model Validation.- 10 Standard EMI/EMC Problems for Software Evaluation.

Electronic, electrical, and fiber optic equipment of every sort must be designed to operate in this hostile electromagnetic environment. This places a heavy burden on the design engineer, who, now more than ever, needs useful tools to overcome the difficulties of providing discriminating equipment and at the same time try to reduce electromagnetic environmental pollution. Although modelling of electromagnetics has been used in antenna and radar applications for many years, there has been no focus on applying these modelling techniques to EMI/EMC problems. This book will provide information to EMI/EMC engineers and electronic design engineers to help them understand the finer points of EMI/EMC modelling.
