<b>PLEASE NOTE: This item has been superceded by a new version. </b><i><a href="https://doi.org/10.21061/electromagnetics-vol-1">Electromagnetics</i> Vol. 1</a> (Aug. 2018), which is freely available electronically. Abstract: <b>Electromagnetics Volume 1 (BETA)</b> (CC BY-SA 4.0) by Steven W. Ellingson is a 224-page, peer-reviewed, open educational resource intended to serve as a primary textbook for a one-semester first course in undergraduate engineering electromagnetics, and includes: electric and magnetic fields; electromagnetic properties of materials; electromagnetic waves; and devices that operate according to associated electromagnetic principles including resistors, capacitors, inductors, transformers, generators, and transmission lines. This book employs the "transmission lines first" approach, in which transmission lines are introduced using a lumped-element equivalent circuit model for a differential length of transmission line, leading to one-dimensional wave equations for voltage and current. This is intended for electrical engineering students in the third year of a bachelor of science degree program. Print copies of this book are available on Amazon.com (ISBN:978-0997920123). About this Beta version: The BETA version of Volume 1 is being field tested in a Spring 2018 course. It will be updated and re-released at this site in VTechWorks in Summer 2018. The following will also be added: index (within the book); problem sets, solution manual, and LaTeX source code (in VTechWorks). Use, sharing, contributions to, and customization of this book or portions of this book or figures are an inherent part of the intent of the way this book has been published.

Ellingson at Virginia Tech. The goal of the project is to create no-cost openly-licensed content for courses in undergraduate engineering electromagnetics. The project is motivated by two things: lowering learning material costs for students and giving faculty the freedom to adopt, modify, and improve their educational resources.
