Intended Pedagogical Purposes

Purposes related to teaching and educational objectives.

Dissemination

The act of spreading something, especially information, widely.

Integrity of the Work

The quality of being whole or undivided, maintaining the original state or form.

Induced Current Density

The electric current per unit area that is produced in a conductor in response to an external electromagnetic field.

Boundary Conditions

Conditions that specify the behavior of a field at the boundary of a region.

Reflected and Transmitted Electric Field Intensity

The measure of the electric field strength that is reflected back and that passes through a boundary.

Time Averaged Power Density

The average power per unit area carried by a wave over a period of time.

Uniform Plane Wave

A wave that has a constant amplitude and frequency throughout a plane that is typically perpendicular to its direction of travel.

Lossy Dielectric Medium

A material that dissipates energy as electromagnetic waves propagate through it.

Instantaneous Total Electric Field Intensity

The total strength of the electric field at a given moment in time.

PEC Interface

Perfect Electric Conductor interface, which reflects electromagnetic waves perfectly without absorbing energy.
