About the Authors John L. Volakis is professor at the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Michigan. He has published more than 140 refereed journal articles and more than 140 conference papers on numerical and analytical techniques in electromagnetics. Dr. Volakis is also coauthor of Approximate Boundary Conditions in Electromagnetics (IEE Press, 1995) and several book chapters.Arindam Chaterjee has developed three-dimensional computer simulation of electromagnetic fields for scattering and microwave circuits, and is currently a member of the finite element development group for the HFSS finite element commercial package at Hewlett-Packard.Leo C. Kempel developed three-dimensional antenna simulation packages using the finite element-boundary integral method and has extensive experience with all popular numerical techniques in electromagnetics. He is currently at Mission Research Corporation, Florida, conducting research and development on all aspects of electromagnetics.
