The study of the interaction of lightning electromagnetic fields with electrical systems and the design of appropriate protection strategies are generally based on statistical distributions of the lightning current measured at the channel base using either ...
The fields of rapidly moving sources are studied within nonlinear electrodynamics by boosting the fields of sources at rest. As a consequence of the ultrarelativistic limit the δ-like electromagnetic shock waves are found. The character of the field within ...
Current from nearby rocket-triggered lightning that flowed through the soil and into an unenergized test power distribution line was studied based on experimental data acquired in 2003 at the International Center for Lightning Research and Testing in Flori ...
Lightning currents and electromagnetic fields associated with return strokes to elevated strike objects The aim of this thesis is the modeling of lightning return strokes impacting elevated strike objects such as towers. The theoretical and experimental wo ...
In this paper, we investigate the reasons why some return stroke models do not reproduce one of the characteristic features of the electromagnetic fields radiated by lightning, namely the far-field inversion of polarity with a zero crossing occurring in th ...
We demonstrate that it is possible to combine several small metallic particles in a very compact geometry without loss of their individual modal properties by adding a gold metallic film underneath. This film essentially acts as a "ground plane" which chan ...
This paper presents an analysis of lightning return strokes to tall structures. The interaction of lightning with a tall structure is modeled using the antenna theory. The finite ground conductivity as well as the buried grounding system of the tall struct ...
New general expressions relating lightning return stroke currents and far radiated electric and magnetic fields are proposed, taking into account the effect of an elevated strike object, whose presence is included as an extension to the transmission line ( ...
Lightning-induced voltages in power and communication systems are nowadays one of the main causes of power quality and electromagnetic compatibility. In recent years, due to the increasing demand by customers for good quality in the power supply along with ...
The paper is a contribution to the studies of factors that can affect electric (E) and magnetic (H) fields associated with lightning return strokes to tall structure. Herein, the influence of lightning channel inclination upon vertical E-field and azimutha ...
