This is one of the best books on computational electromagnetics both for graduate students focusing on electromagnetics problems and for practicing engineering professionals in industry and government. It is designed as an advanced textbook and self-study guide to the FDTD method of solving EM problems and simulations.This latest edition has been expanded to include 5 entirely new chapters on advanced topics in the mainstream of FDTD practice. In addition to advanced techniques it also includes applications and examples, and some tricks and traps of using MATLAB to achieve them.Compared to the previous version the second edition is more complete and is a good reference for someone who is performing FDTD research.This book is part of the ACES Series on Computational Electromagnetics and Engineering."
