OBIETTIVI FORMATIVI (DETTAGLIO) E RISULTATI DI APPRENDIMENTO L’insegnamento si propone di fornire strumenti teorici necessari alla comprensione di fenomeni quali l'interazione dei campi elettromagnetici con la materia e la propagazione ondosa. L’obiettivo primario è quello di instillare la sensibilità sull’importanza degli effetti dei campi elettromagnetici sulla materia, in termini di forze, energia e momenti, e sulle conseguenze di tali effetti, in termini di condizioni al contorno, attenuazioni, riflessioni. ecc., nell'ottica di preparare l'allievo ingegnere alla comprensione del funzionamento di dispositivi di interesse per le applicazioni quali le antenne o gli strumenti di diagnostica di strutture o corpi biologici. MODALITA' DIDATTICHE Le lezioni e gli esercizi vengono svolti dal docente in aula.
