High-frequency response of a hemispherical grounding electrode

Marcos Rubinstein, Antonio Sunjerga, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri

The lightning discharge current is characterized by a high-frequency spectrum extending from DC to about 10 MHz. The calculation of the grounding impedance is one of the most important aspects of designing lightning protection systems. The search for analy ...

Performance Comparison of Cables With Partial Transposition

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák, Federica Demattè, Chiara Frittitta

The need of full transposition of the current carrying elements (strands) in large cables is frequently retained as top design criterion for conductors operating in pulsed mode. However, when the transposition error, i.e., the inductance difference among t ...

Highly anisotropic carbon fiber electrodes for DEAs and their dynamic non-monotonic conductive properties

Yves Perriard, Stefania Maria Aliki Konstantinidi, Markus Koenigsdorff

A common method for creating compliant electrodes for dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) and soft sensors is to incorporate electrically conductive carbon particles into a polymer matrix. However, using unidirectional aligned carbon fibers instead not o ...

Small-argument analytical expressions for the calculation of the ground-return impedance and admittance of underground cables

Rafael Silva Alipio

This paper proposes small-argument approximations for two closed-form equations that were recently derived for the calculation of the ground-return impedance and admittance of underground cables. The proposed expressions are shown to be accurate up to 1 MH ...

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

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, 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 ...
