Waves are everywhere in our daily life. We all experience sound and
light with our ears and eyes: we use microwaves to cook, and radio waves
are transmitted from, and are received by, our cell phones. These are
just some examples of waves that carry energy from point A to B.
However, we may not know details of the physics underlying all these
waves. It is important to understand the mechanisms that generate wave
dynamics for a given system. It is not straightforward to explain how an
electromagnetic ï¬eld becomes oscillatory and propagates as a wave.
Waves sometimes represent the underlying dynamics of observed phenomena
at a fundamental level of physics.
This book is designed to
explore these mechanisms by discussing various aspects of wave dynamics
from as many perspectives as possible. The target audiences are
undergraduate students majoring in engineering science and graduate
students majoring in general engineering. Going beyond the typical
approach to learning science, this book discusses wave dynamics and
related concepts at various levels of mathematics and physics, sometimes
touching on profound physics behind them. This book was written to help
readers learn wave dynamics on a deep physical level, and develop
innovative ideas in their own ï¬elds.
