A Matlab simulation was developed to help visualise and investigate electromagnetic tunnelling through particular non-dissipative and dissipative barriers within a waveguide. The theory behind the simulation is based on a transmission line model that accurately predicts previously published experimental results. The simulation (both development and use) demonstrates that physical concepts can be taught using various learning processes with an appreciation of the mathematics involved.
