Education level First cycle Grade scale G U 3 4 5 Subject Physics Subject group (SCB) Physics Entry requirementsIn order to meet the general entry requirements for first cycle studies you must have successfully completed upper secondary education and documented skills in English language and Basic courses in calculus, algebra, analysis and ordinary differential equations corresponding to the courses M0029M, M0030M, M0031M, M0032M. Alternatively, corresponding mathematics for the secondary education program, for example U0002P, U0021P, M0033M. More information about English language requirements SelectionThe selection is based on 1-165 credits.Course Aim Knowledge and understanding ● Knowledge of components of linear electrical circuits ● Knowledge of methods for calculations on linear circuits ● Understand how electrical fields are produced and how they are affected by dielctric materials ● Understand how magnetic fields are produced, induction, and electromagnetic waves Skill and ability ● Apply methods for calculations on linear electrical circuits ● Apply vector calculus on problems in electromagnetism ● Apply geometrical symmetry to solve electromagnetic problems Approach and values ● Practice problem solving ● Practice the ability to make reasonable approximations and assumptions ● Judge whether a problem may be solved analytically, or if numerical methods are required ● Estimate if calculated results are reasonable ● Gain insight in applications of linear curcuits and electromagnetisma in science and engineering ContentsElectrical engineering: Linear circuits, DC and AC voltages in stationary and transient processes. Electromagnetic field theory: Electrostatics, dielectrics, conductors. Methods for potential problems. Magnetic fields. Maxwell's equations, including Faraday's law of induction.RealizationThere will be lessons - lectures combined with problem solving - and two mandatory laboratory exercises in electrical engineering, in groups of 2-3 students. At least one of the labs will include a written report. The students will practice problem solving on their own and in groups, as well as handling modern lab equipment. The students will gradually develop their ability to formulate and analyze problems in electrical engineering and electromagnetism.ExaminationMandatory assignments, written exam, and laboratory exercisesExaminerMagnus GustafssonLiterature.
