Aims and Fit of Module

To equip students with tools to analyse electrical circuits with an understanding of the nature of electric, magnetic and electromagnetic fields, which are important to engineering and applications

Learning outcomes

A. Understand principles related to Electrostatics and
Magnetostatics and analyse the operation of basic magnetically
coupled circuits;
B. Apply Maxwell's equations in differential and integral form for
engineering applications and the energy aspects of electromagnetic
fields, and understand and analyse the properties of plane waves in
free space;
C. Describe and analyse the transient and frequency responses of
first order and second order networks;
D. Explain the structure and operation of three phase networks and
analyse network properties.
E. Perform network analysis using appropriate parameters on two
port networks;

Method of teaching and learning

This module will be delivered by a combination of formal lectures, problem classes, and laboratory work.
