This book is for senior undergraduate/first-year graduate students specializing in one or more of the technologies based on electromagnetics. Composed of three parts, it begins with the electromagnetics of bounded simple media, moves on to electromagnetic equations of complex media, and then covers electromagnetic computation. The author takes a modern approach by using commercial software such as MATLAB and FDTD methods and provides a strong base of conceptual mathematical aspects. The material strikes a balance between theory, intuitive approximate solutions, and the use of commercial software and interpretation of solutions. Case studies and practical examples are presented throughout the text.

The data mining and machine learning literature currently lacks a unified treatment of multi-label dimensionality reduction that incorporates both algorithmic developments and applications. Addressing this shortfall, this book covers the methodological developments, theoretical properties, computational aspects, and applications of many multi-label dimensionality reduction algorithms, including existing dimensionality reduction algorithms and new developments of traditional algorithms. It illustrates how to apply the algorithms to solve real-world problems. A supplementary website provides a MATLAB package for implementing popular dimensionality reduction algorithms.

"… a seminal text covering the simulation design and analysis of a broad variety of systems using two of the most modern software packages available today. … particularly adept [at] enabling students new to the field to gain a thorough understanding of the basics of continuous simulation in a single semester, and [also provides] a more advanced treatment of the subject for researchers and simulation professionals." —From the Foreword by Chris Bauer, PhD, PE, CMSP Continuous-system simulation is an increasingly important tool for optimizing the performance of real-world systems, and a massive transformation has occurred in the application of simulation in fields ranging from engineering and physical sciences to medicine, biology, economics, and applied mathematics. As with most things, simulation is best learned through practice—but explosive growth in the field requires a new learning approach. A response to changes in the field, Simulation of Dynamic Systems with MATLAB® and Simulink®, Second Edition has been extensively updated to help readers build an in-depth and intuitive understanding of basic concepts, mathematical tools, and the common principles of various simulation models for different phenomena. Includes an abundance of case studies, real-world examples, homework problems, and equations to develop a practical understanding of concepts Accomplished experts Harold Klee and Randal Allen take readers through a gradual and natural progression of important topics in simulation, introducing advanced concepts only after they construct complete examples using fundamental methods. Presented exercises incorporate MATLAB® and Simulink®—including access to downloadable M-files and model files—enabling both students and professionals to gain experience with these industry-standard tools and more easily design, implement, and adjust simulation models in their particular field of study. More universities are offering courses—as well as masters and Ph.D programs—in both continuous-time and discrete-time simulation, promoting a new interdisciplinary focus that appeals to undergraduates and beginning graduates from a wide range of fields. Ideal for such courses, this classroom-tested introductory text presents a flexible, multifaceted approach through which simulation can play a prominent role in validating system design and training personnel involved.

Environmental Data Analysis with MatLab is a new edition that expands fundamentally on the original with an expanded tutorial approach, new crib sheets, and problem sets providing a clear learning path for students and researchers working to analyze real data sets in the environmental sciences. Since publication of the bestselling Environmental Data Analysis with MATLAB®, many advances have been made in environmental data analysis.

This book covers multi-carrier communication and discusses its advantages and limitations with solutions for these limitations. It addresses the two primary drawbacks of OFDM communication systems: the high sensitivity to carrier frequency offsets and phase noise, and the high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of the transmitted signals. Presenting a new interleaving scheme for multicarrier communication, it discusses the application of continuous phase modulation to multi-carrier communication systems such as OFDM and SC-FDMA systems. It also discusses image transmission with Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT)-based SC-FDMA systems using continuous phase modulation.

This book is issued from a 30 years’ experience on the presentation of variational methods to successive generations of students and researchers in Engineering. It gives a comprehensive, pedagogical and engineer-oriented presentation of the foundations of variational methods and of their use in numerical problems of Engineering. Particular applications to linear and nonlinear systems of equations, differential equations, optimization and control are presented. MATLAB programs illustrate the implementation and make the book suitable as a textbook and for self-study. The evolution of knowledge, of the engineering studies and of the society in general has led to a change of focus from students and researchers. New generations of students and researchers do not have the same relations to mathematics as the previous ones. In the particular case of variational methods, the presentations used in the past are not adapted to the previous knowledge, the language and the centers of interest of the new generations. Since these methods remain a core knowledge – thus essential - in many fields (Physics, Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Economics, Image analysis …), a new presentation is necessary in order to address variational methods to the actual context.
