Abstract

Model of studying the electromagnetic theory, mathematics, computing and
data visualization in purpose to comprehend the main ideas of theories and
practical applications are proposed. To learn physical processes and system’s
properties by computer simulation and to learn simulation by solution of
physical tasks is the concept of proposed model. Integrated course of
electromagnetic (EM) field and wave theories, mathematical solution of
equations, computing techniques based on solutions of well known tasks as well
as current problems of applied electrodynamics are considered. Application examples of electromagnetic in scientific research, modern
technologies represent the abstract theories in realistic existence, help to
understand deeply theoretical course, appreciate significance of (EM) theories
in many fields of daily life.  Knowledge of main
theories of electromagnetic combined with mathematics and computing is
necessary for solving the electrodynamics problems such as (EM) waves
scattering and diffraction, interaction of (EM) field and objects of different
electric and geometric properties, basis of linear and nonlinear optical
techniques, etc. Selected
tasks of electrodynamics are constructed of several modules: formulation of
physical problem, theories and methods of solution – physical and mathematical,
specifics of problem, approximation and application cases, computer simulation,
analysis. Each completed module expands outlook, develops skills, intuition, self-confidence, encourages
participants be more motivated, active in learning and improvement of knowledge
in multi disciplines. Proposed model is presented by considering
one task - EM waves scattering on a single cylindrical body, applicable in radio physics, transmitting and detecting systems, aerosol studies for particles of
different origin. Estimation of EM field components, scattering
characteristics, theoretical predictions based on analytical
solutions and numerical simulations are considered.
