EM Modeling of Antennas and RF Components for Wireless Communication Systems

The book focuses on the practical aspects of computational electrodynamics. A short review of electromagnetic field theory and an illustrative introduction to basic concepts of numerical methods provide the mathematical and physical background. The main part the book guides the reader step-by-step through the modelling process: from the initial "what question shall the model answer?", through the setting up of a computer model by creating geometry, boundary conditions, sources, …, to post processing, validation, and optimization. A number of antenna and filter examples demonstrate the advantages and disadvantages of different numerical methods. So the book provides a realistic view on the capabilities and limits of state-of-the-art 3D-field simulators and on how to apply this knowledge efficiently to EM analysis and designing of RF applications in modern communication systems.

Elementi di fisica teorica = Elements of theoretical physics

The approach in this book is less formal than traditional Theoretical Physics Foundations courses. The goal is still to achieve a genuine understanding of physical concepts and the ability to independently solve problems. The style is conversational, with abundant examples, and the presentation of all important steps is detailed, answering all the questions students typically ask in advance. The author has given space to recent and interesting developments, such as the scanning tunneling microscope and quantum cryptography. He has always sought to explain the rationale behind mathematical manipulations and the physical meaning of all measurable quantities. Above all, he has emphasized the aspects that make Theoretical Physics a science full of practical implications and a particularly fascinating intellectual adventure.

Electronic house finder

One of the most practical ways to help the Syrian citizens search for suitable and affordable houses is to build an android application for selling, buying and renting houses. This application will ease the process of searching for houses as a whole, and will benefit real estate business owners by enabling them to spread their houses’ offers online. Through exploiting the advantage of the recent wide usage of mobile-based applications by the majority of the Syrian people, we can create an application in which the users are able to post house offers, post specified orders, view posted houses details, and filter their search according to many features (i.e., price and area).
