5.1.1 Maxwell’s Equations
Before going into NEA methods, let us look at Maxwell’s equations, which
are the fundamentals of electromagnetics. They are stated in the time
domainas

E(r, t) is the electric eld
H(r, t) is the magnetic eld
D(r, t) is the electric-ux density
B(r, t) is the magnetic-ux density
J(r, t) is the conduction current density
ρ(r, t) are the volume charge density, each at space point r and at time t
