Making electromagnetic fields visible in class

North China Electric Power University

All case studies

The engineering question

Electromagnetic fields are difficult to see in a physical classroom, making the connection between equations and field behaviour challenging.

The approach

The university and SimWE developed interactive examples accompanying an engineering electromagnetics textbook. Simdroid applications let learners vary geometry and excitations and inspect field results.

What the source reports

The article documents teaching use and examples such as dipoles, coils, motors and transformers. It also shows wider university use; these screenshots are not counted as separate projects.
