OverviewToday's engineers must be able to communicate effectively within the interdisciplinary teams in which they work. Electrical, electronic and electromechanical systems are pervasive in all aspects of engineering design and analysis. This text serves to prepare students for their careers following these basic objectives:
• To present the fundamentals of electrical and electronic circuits, and of electronic and electromechanical systems using an approach that is designed to appeal to students from a variety of engineering disciplines through applied examples and effective pedagogy.
• To introduce students to the most appropriate analytical and computational tools to solve a variety of practical problems.
• To illustrate by way of concrete, fully developed examples, many relevant applications of the fundamentals of electrical engineering.
This text focuses on the fundamental topics that form the content of most introductory EE courses. The hallmark feature of extensive use of practical, interesting applications from all areas of engineering to illustrate fundamental issues can be found in this text, as well as in Principles and Applications of Electrical Engineering, also by Giorgio Rizzoni.Fundamentals of Electrical Engineering is the ideal choice for introductory electrical engineering courses with a mixed audience: it combines appropriate rigor with a wealth of basic, intermediate, and advanced examples. It uses excellent pedagogy in reinforcing basic concept and solution methods, and will serve the students as a useful reference throughout their engineering careers.
