Eddy current problems can be approached either by analytical or numerical methods. This book presents the analytical methods for determining the eddy current density and associated loss in linear conducting media at low frequencies in the steady state. The methods are described and presented in such a manner that they can readily be used by engineers and researchers.

Europe's place in the world throughout the narrative and in the primary source feature, 'The Global Record.' The seventh edition has been carefully revised and edited for greater accessibility, and features a streamlined design that incorporates pedagogical features such as focus questions, key terms, and section summaries to better support students of western civilization. The reconceived narrative and restructured organization, featuring smaller, more cohesive learning units, lend to greater ease of use for both students and instructors. History CourseMate, a set of media-rich study tools with interactive eBook that gives students access to quizzes, flashcards, primary sources, videos and more, are available for this new edition. (CourseMate may be bundled with the text or purchased separately.) Available in the following split options: WESTERN CIVILIZATION: BEYOND BOUNDARIES, Seventh Edition Complete, Volume I: To 1715, Volume II: Since 1560, Volume A: To 1500, Volume B: 1300-1815, and Volume C: Since 1789.

Nonlinear Diffusion of Electromagnetic Fields covers applications of the phenomena of non-linear diffusion of electromagnetic fields, such as magnetic recording, electromagnetic shielding and non-destructive testing, development of CAD software, and the design of magnetic components in electrical machinery. The material presented has direct applications to the analysis of eddy currents in magnetically nonlinear and hysteretic conductors and to the study of magnetization processes in electrically nonlinear superconductors. This book will provide very valuable technical and scientific information to a broad audience of engineers and researchers who are involved in these diverse areas. - Contains extensive use of analytical techniques for the solution of nonlinear problems of electromagnetic field diffusion - Simple analytical formulas for surface impedances of nonlinear and hysteretic media - Analysis of nonlinear diffusion for linear, circular and elliptical polarizations of electromagnetic fields - Novel and extensive analysis of eddy current losses in steel laminations for unidirectional and rotating magnetic fields - Preisach approach to the modeling of eddy current hysteresis and superconducting hysteresis - Extensive study of nonlinear diffusion in superconductors with gradual resistive transitions (scalar and vertorial problems)

This book deals with the mathematical analysis and the numerical approximation of eddy current problems in the time-harmonic case. It takes into account all the most used formulations, placing the problem in a rigorous functional framework.
