This
book provides an accessible introduction to intermediate-level
electrodynamics with computa- tional approaches to complement a
traditional mathematical treatment of the subject. It covers key topics
in electrodynamics, such as electromagnetic fields, forces, potentials,
and waves as well as Special Theory of Relativity.
Through
intuition-building examples and visualizations in the Python
programming language, it helps readers to develop technical computing
skills in numerical and symbolic calculations, modeling and simulations,
and visualizations. Python is a highly readable and practical
programming language, making this book appropriate for students without
extensive programming experience.
This book can serve
as an electrodynamics textbook for undergraduate physics and
engineering students in their second or third years, who are studying
intermediate- or advanced-level electrodynamics and who want to learn
techniques for scientific computing at the same time. This book will
also appeal to computer science students who want to see how their
computer programming skills may be applied to science, particularly to
physics, without needing too much background physics knowledge.
Key features
- Major concepts in classical electrodynamics are introduced cohesively through computational and mathematical treatments
- Computational
examples in Python programming language guide students on how to
simulate and visualize electrodynamic principles and phenomena for
themselves
