SK2310 Tillämpad elektromagnetism 6,0 hp

Part 1: Static fields.

Electrostatics: Coulomb's law. Electric lines of force. Evaluation of electric field and potential in vacuum and with conducting and dielectric materials. Capacitors. Energy and force in electrostatic systems. Conductors and semiconductors.

Magnetostatics: Static magnetic fields. Biot-Savart's and Ampere's laws. Fields in magnetic materials. Magnetic circuits and reluctance.

Part 2: Time-dependent fields.

Electromagnetic induction. Faraday's law. Mutual and self-induction. Energy and forces in static and quasi-stationary fields. Maxwell's equations. Conservation laws. Radiation and reception of electromagnetic waves. Transformation of electric and magnetic fields between systems with uniform velocity.

After the course, the student will:

• be able to describe the relation between electromagnetic fields and their sources (distributions of charge and current)
• understand how isotropic materials affect the field distribution
• know Maxwell's equations (on differential and integral form) and how to use them
• be able to analyze plane waves and fields from given current distributions
• understand retarded potentials and fields
• be able to choose adequate models and methods of solution for a specific problem
• have good ability to solve problems analytically and numerically.

Vector analysis, Fourier and Laplace analysis.

När kurs inte längre ges har student möjlighet att examineras under ytterligare två läsår.

• INL1 - Inlämningsuppgifter, 2,0 hp, betygsskala: P, F
• TEN1 - Tentamen, 4,0 hp, betygsskala: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F

Examinator beslutar, baserat på rekommendation från KTH:s handläggare av stöd till studenter med funktionsnedsättning, om eventuell anpassad examination för studenter med dokumenterad, varaktig funktionsnedsättning.

Examinator får medge annan examinationsform vid omexamination av enstaka studenter.

Written exam (TEN1; 4 credits, grading A-F).
Hand-in assignments (INL1; 2 credits, grading P/F).

• Vid grupparbete har alla i gruppen ansvar för gruppens arbete.
• Vid examination ska varje student ärligt redovisa hjälp som erhållits och källor som använts.
• Vid muntlig examination ska varje student kunna redogöra för hela uppgiften och hela lösningen.
