The Maxwell’s equations for a mechano-driven media system (MEs-f-MDMS)

Abstract

In classical electrodynamics, by motion, it always means a relative movement of two observers in inertia reference frames, so that the covariance of the Maxwell’s equations is preserved respectively in two spaces under Lorentz transformation. The energy is thus conservative for the electromagnetic system. The theory for describing the electromagnetic behavior of the charged particles in vacuum space can be well described using the special relativity because of the invariance of the speed of light in vacuum. However, for engineering applications, the media have shapes and sizes and may move with acceleration, and a system may have multiple moving objects that may be correlated or independently under external mechanical triggering. This paper presents the theory for describing the electromagnetic phenomena in this electro-magnetic-mechano system. We mainly introduce the Maxwell’s equations for a mechano-driven media system (MEs-f-MDMS) under low-speed approximation (v << c). We concluded that the MEs-f-MDMS are required for describing the electrodynamics inside a moving object that moves not only with accelerated translation motion but also has rotation motion. The classical Maxwell’s equations are to describe the electrodynamics in the region where there is no local medium movement. The full solutions of the two regions satisfy the boundary conditions, so that the rotation of the object affects the electromagnetic field at vicinity. The theoretical approaches for solving the MEs-f-MDMS are also presented.
