Outline |
<I> Mathematical treatment of vector operators
are explained in detail. These are used to derive the Laplace's and
Poisson's equations in static electricity and magnetism.
Electromagnetism, which was introduced conceptually in the high school
curriculum, are reinforced mathematically as the base for the advanced
engineering.
<II>Key words: Vector algebra such as addition, subtraction, scalar
product and vector product. Vectors in cartesian, cylindrical and spherical
coordinate systems. Vector coordinate
transformation. Vector differenciation and integration. Gradient
of scalar function, divergence and curl of vector field. Vetor fields
in electromagnetism. Laplace's and Poisson's equations.
