dc.description.abstract | <br><b><i>Electromagnetics</i>, volume 1</b> by Steven W. Ellingson is a 225-page, peer-reviewed open educational resource intended for electrical engineering students in the third year of a bachelor of science degree program. It is intended as a primary textbook for a one-semester first course in undergraduate engineering electromagnetics. The 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. Note: <i>Electromagnetics</i>, volume 2 (2020) is now available at <a href="https://doi.org/10.21061/electromagnetics-vol-2">https://doi.org/10.21061/electromagnetics-vol-2</a>. <b>Suggested citation</b> <br>Ellingson, Steven W.

Ellingson at Virginia Tech, the goal of the <a href="https://www.faculty.ece.vt.edu/swe/oem">Open Electromagnetics Project</a> is to create no-cost openly-licensed content for courses in 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. <b>Books in this series</b> <br><i>Electromagnetics</i>, Volume 1 <a href="https://doi.org/10.21061/electromagnetics-vol-1">https://doi.org/10.21061/electromagnetics-vol-1</a> <br><i>Electromagnetics</i>, Volume 2 <a href="https://doi.org/10.21061/electromagnetics-vol-2">https://doi.org/10.21061/electromagnetics-vol-2</a> To express your interest in a book or this series, please visit <a href="http://bit.ly/vtpublishing-updates">http://bit.ly/vtpublishing-updates</a> This book improves on <a href="http://hdl.handle.net/10919/78735"><i>Electromagnetics</i> Volume 1 (beta)</a> with the investment of field testing, copyediting, and technical review.
