Credits: 4
Catalog
Description: Vector
analysis for field theory. General
principles. The static and
magnetic fields. Electromagnetic
energy, forces. Analytical
and numerical techniques. Time
varying electric and magnetic fields and Maxwell’s equations.
Prerequisites:
PHYS 201, MATH 202.
Coordinator:
Selim Şeker, Professor of Electrical Engineering
Goals: This course is aimed to give fundamentals of electromagnetic theory to
junior year student in Electrical and Electronics engineering.
Learning
Objectives:
- At the end of this course, students will be able to:
- Understand
electrostatic, magnetostatic, and electromagnetic fields and their
interaction with matter.
- Solve
basic canonical electrostatic, magnetostatic, and electromagnetic
problems
- Understand
electromagnetic wave propagation.
- Solve
for the reflection and transmission of uniform plane waves at
infinite planar interfaces.

Prerequisites
by Topic:
Topics:
-
Math
Review. Vector
addition and multiplication; coordinate systems, circulation and
flux, divergence, gradient, curl, vector identities, divergence
theorem, Stoke's Theorem. (2 weeks)
-
Electrostatics.
Charge
configurations, Coulomb's law, E-field, electrostatic potential,
Gauss's law, dielectrics, boundary conditions, Poisson's and
Laplace's equations. (3.5 weeks)
-
Magnetostatics.

functions, time-harmonic fields. (3 weeks)
-
Two
Tests (1.0 week)
Course
Structure: The class meets for three lectures a week, each
consisting of a 50-minute session. Homework problems will be assigned in
some weeks. There will be two closed book midterm exams, and a closed
book final exam.
Computer
Resources: None.
Laboratory
Resources: None.
Grading:
- Homework
sets (10%).
- Two
mid-term exams (20% each).
- A
final exam (50%).
Outcome
Coverage:
-
Apply
math, science and engineering knowledge:
Students must know ordinary and partial differential equation and
their solution in time domain and phases space very well. They also need
to use complex algebra in this course.
-
Ability
to identify, formulize, and solve engineering problems: The midterm
and final are closed book, but we provide necessary equations in exam.
So the students should have the ability to identify the parameters,
equations for solving the problems given in the midterm and final exams.
-
Understanding
of professional and ethical responsibility: Students are taught
about real life experience and ethics behavior and any skill or
principle gain in their study will be affected their ethical profession
in their future.
