15 Sep 2008 21:24 advise me a book to buy

hi

please advise me a good book to buy about computational electromagnetics.

i am looking for a big book (500++ pages), which covers the FEM, FDTD, MOM, also basic em theory, and applications for PCBs. not an antenna book, nor some specialized thing please. general, but detailed.

i recommened L " microwave enginerring " David. Pozar

I would personally prefer buying a specific book for each one of the methods. However if you want to find all the information in just one book, I can suggest Sadiku's "Numerical Techniques in Electromagnetics".

If you consider buying them seperately,
Jianming Jin, "The Finite Element Method in Electromagnetics"
Volakis J.L., Chatterjee A., Kempel L.C. "Finite Element Method for Electromagnetics"
Allen Taflove, "Computational Electrodynamics The Finite Difference Time Domain Method"

thanx. last week i ordered the "Computational Electromagnetics (Texts in Applied Mathematics) "
maybe it was a mistake? anyway, i will read it, then go on with a bigger book on a sub-subject.

1 - i think the book you ordered is a mistake. i think that book is a collection of topics.
2 - Do not get microwave engineering by Pozar. The book is not on computational electromagnetics, but on microwave engineering such as filter design, oscillator design, transmission lines
3 - I think you may have to buy various books for the various methods (FEM, FDTD, MOM). But Sadiku is good choice.
Also,Computational methods in electromagnetics by Mittra is another book. The problem is that both books were written a while ago, and there has been numerous advances since they were written.

If you are interested in Computational EM in general, then Sadiku should be fine.

There is another book for applied mathematics: "Computational Electromagnetics" by Anders Bondeson, Thomas Rylander and Par Ingelstrom.

I think you are looking for a book which covers computational methods altogether.. And you are specifically interested in PCB applications?

There is a book called "Microwave Circuit Modeling Using Electromagnetic Field Simulation" by Daniel G. Swanson, Jr. and Wolfgang J. R. Hoefer. That book is good if you want to learn more about computational methods in general and how commercial EM solvers work, which one should you use for your application, etc...
