The basic information for designers of lightning protection of MV and LV networks is given in Part I of the present publication. This Part II gives an application of this basic information to the lightning protection of MV networks containing overhead line ...
The calculation of voltages induced by indirect lightning on multiconductor overhead power lines has been the subject of several studies. The reported conclusions are not always in agreement with each other. In this paper, using a modeling procedure presen ...
The voltages induced by nearby lightning strikes are a major cause of outages in power distribution systems. We compute such voltages taking into account the effects of the dart leaders that precede subsequent return strokes in both natural and rocket-trig ...
A model for the calculation of lightning-induced voltages is presented with the aim of assessing the effect of corona when power distribution lines are illuminated by lightning electromagnetic fields. Corona is taken into account by means of dynamic capaci ...
This paper presents a pragmatic way to build a Reliable CORBA Event Service. Our approach is pragmatic in the sense that, rather than building the service from scratch, we show how to obtain it, through a simple transformation, from any standard (unreliabl ...
Integrating virtual human animation in networked virtual environments (NVEs) has the potential to create severe network load issues. In NVEs, users are represented by their virtual embodiments. The articulated structure of these embodiments introduces a ne ...

The calculation or voltages induced by indirect lightning on multiconductor lines has been the subject of several studies. The reported conclusions are not always in agreement with each other. In this paper, using a modeling procedure presented in a previo ...
A comprehensive study on the effect of a lossy ground on the induced voltages on overhead power lines by a nearby lightning strike is presented. The ground conductivity plays a role in both the evaluation of the lightning radiated fields and of the line pa ...
Researchers working on the problem of the coupling of lightning electromagnetic fields to overhead lines have suggested that, if the formulation of the coupling problem given by Agrawal et al. is adopted, only the horizontal component of the electric field ...
