The importance of Weber-Maxwell electrodynamics in electrical
engineering
- Steffen Kühn
Abstract
Weber-Maxwell electrodynamics combines classical Weber electrodynamics
and Maxwell's equations, including all four field equations and the
Lorentz force, into a single de facto equivalent three-dimensional wave
equation. From classical Weber electrodynamics, Weber-Maxwell
electrodynamics inherits properties in which the concept of the magnetic
field is unnecessary, and Newton's third law is satisfied under all
circumstances. From Maxwell's electrodynamics, Weber-Maxwell
electrodynamics inherits the ability to be compatible with
electromagnetic waves. This article shows that in Weber-Maxwell
electrodynamics, all conservation laws are satisfied, and that
electromagnetic waves in an isolated system do not possess energy and
momentum, but only mediate them between particles of matter.
Furthermore, the article shows that the modern formulation of Weber
electrodynamics is clearly superior to standard electrodynamics in
electrical engineering, because it not only eliminates the internal
contradictions, but also represents considerable simplification and
compression.Aug 2023Published in IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation volume 71 issue 8 on pages 6698-6706. 10.1109/TAP.2023.3278078
