Formulations

• Static and stationary fields
• e.g., electrostatics, magnetostatics, direct
  current
• elliptic equations (boundary value problem)
• Quasi-stationary fields
• e.g. electro-quasistatic problem, eddy current
  problem
• parabolic equations (initial and boundary value
  problem)
• Full Maxwells equations
• e.g. wave propagation, resonant cavities,
• hyperbolic equations, eigenvalue problems,
