A review of the modeling approaches of the lightning M-component with special attention to their current and electric field characteristics

Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Carlo Alberto Nucci, Qi Li

In this paper, we present the characteristics of current, electric fields and modeling approaches of lightning M-component mode of charge transfer. We consider both the classical M-components (occurring after return strokes) and M-component-type ICC (Initi ...

Exact Expressions for Lightning Electromagnetic Fields: Application to the Rusck Field-To-Transmission Line Coupling Model

Marcos Rubinstein, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri

An exact analytical expression for the electric field of the return stroke as excited by a propagating step current source is derived in this paper. This expression could be advantageously used to evaluate the disturbances caused by lightning on overhead l ...

Analytic Approximation of In-Body Path Loss for Implanted Antennas

Anja Skrivervik, Zvonimir Sipus, Mingxiang Gao

Implantable bioelectronic devices predominantly use wireless links for communication and/or power transfer. When considering transmitting implanted antennas, electromagnetic radiation through biological media is highly attenuated, and previous work has sho ...

A Self-Consistent Return Stroke Model That Includes the Effect of the Ground Conductivity at the Strike Point

Marcos Rubinstein

A current generation type return stroke model which can take into account the possible modifications of the return stroke properties by the soil conductivity at the strike point of the lightning flash is introduced. The model is also capable of incorporati ...

Interaction of lightning-generated electromagnetic fields with overhead and underground cables

Marcos Rubinstein, Carlo Alberto Nucci

In this chapter, we discussed the TL theory and its application to the problem of lightning electromagnetic field coupling to transmission lines. After a short discussion on the underlying assumptions of the TL theory, we described seemingly different but ...

Estimation of Charge Transfer During Long Continuing Currents in Natural Downward Flashes Using Single‐Station E‐Field Measurements

Wolfgang Schulz, Hannes Kohlmann

The amount of charge transferred to ground during long continuing currents in natural downward flashes can be obtained either through direct current measurements or using remote electromagnetic fields, if direct measurements are not feasible. In this study ...

Lightning-Induced Voltages on Overhead Distribution Lines Computed through Analytical Expressions for the Electromagnetic Fields

Marcos Rubinstein, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri

The evaluation of lightning ElectroMagnetic (EM) fields represents the most cumbersome part of the lightning-induced voltages computation process. Their evaluation is usually performed through a numerical routine or with simplified analytical expressions, ...

Electromagnetic Fields of a Lightning Return Stroke in Presence of a Stratified Ground

Marcos Rubinstein, Abdenabi Mimouni

We present an analysis of the nearby electromagnetic fields generated by lightning discharges in the presence of a horizontally stratified, two-layer ground. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time the effect of ground stratification on underg ...
