31400 Electromagnetics
The course is obligatory for the electrical engineering preliminary four-semester programme.
Danish title: Elektromagnetisme
Language:  English    ECTS-creditpoints:  10, External examination.   
Type:  , open university
Class schedule:   E1
Since the laboratory exercises cannot be conducted for all students within the frame of module E1, some students will carry out the exercises at other times.
Exam schedule:   E1-A (dec 10 2001), E1-A (dec 10 2001)
Recommended semester:  1st - 4th semester
Scope and form:  Lectures, group tutorials, home assignments, laboratory exercises.
Evaluation:  Written exam and approval of coursework
The written examination counts 3/4 and the assignments 1/4. Approval of compulsory course activities is a prerequisite for exam evaluation.
Examination:  13-scale
Previous course:  48000
Prerequisites:  31000 / 49102.01005 / 01020 / 01021. The course requires a fundamental knowledge of electromagnetic quantities(charge, current, and field), mathematics (scalar and vector functions of multiple variables, vector analysis), and circuit theory.
No credit points with:  C4053 / D4022 / C1532 / C1533 / C1513 / 10013 / 10014 / 10007 / C1507 / C1508 / 48000
Aim:  The students must acquire a knowledge about the concepts and mathematically formulated laws of electromagnetics, which enables them to understand electromagnetic phenomena in nature and technology as well as to solve simple technical problems.
Contents:  Resume of vector analysis, static electric fields, steady electric currents, static magnetic fields, time-varying fields, Maxwell's equations, plane electromagnetic waves, and transmission lines.
Remarks:  The course is given in cooperation between ØRSTED.DTU, Electromagnetic Systems (EMI) and the Department of Electric Power Engineering (ELTEK).
