Aims This course provides a general background in electromagnetism, ending with a comparison with lumped elements electricity (circuit theory). At the end of this course, the students will be able to : - write the equations and calculate the electrostatic and electromagnetic fields for various structures containing conductors and charges - understand the interaction between electromagnetic waves and materials and use properly the concepts of electric permittivity, magnetic permeability and conductivity to describe the materials for various applications - apply Maxwell's equations and boundary conditions to solve simple electromagnetic radiation problems - calculate the equivalent circuit (RLC) of a tri-dimensional structure under electromagnetic field
Content - Stationary field equations in vacuum : electromagnetic and magnetostatic - Solving methods and solving of static problems : method of image, conformal mapping and separation of variables - Materials : dielectric, magnetic, supraconductors and chiral, levitation - Maxwell's equations and their applications : relativity, Poynting, charges moving in electromagnetic fiels, plasma, theorems (unicity, Babynet, ...) Green functions - Circuit elements : link with circuit theory, skin effect, eddy currents, magnetic circuits, limitations to the theory oflumped elements, introduction to distributed circuits.
