Modern Analytical Electromagnetic Homogenization Modern Analytical Electromagnetic Homogenization
Tom G. Mackay, Akhlesh Lakhtakia
Electromagnetic homogenization is the process of estimating the effective electromagnetic properties of composite materials in the long-wavelength regime, wherein the length scales of nonhomogeneities are much smaller than the wavelengths involved. T…
