Reference [1] describes a process for the design of lightning protection that transforms the transient experienced by the components during the lightning test transient into the reference transients ...

Without question, a thunderstorm is very dangerous. It can produce high winds, tornados, hail, and floods, which usually are not big problems for boats or ships. But it also creates ESD events called ...

Lightning-strike tests of a helicopter at Eurocopter's Donauworthfacility have verified the accuracy of finite-element analysis techniques forcharacterizing the electromagnetic behavior of complete ...

Scientists in the Emirates have developed a novel lightning mast layout that reportedly eliminates shading effect on PV panels. The proposed approach also addresses earth grid requirements under ...

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready... Officials with the Regional Transportation District raised questions about a contractor’s design of the A-Line’s electric system as early as 2013, three ...

US FAA officials intend to issue a “special condition” providing clarification of the lightning protection requirements that must be complied with before Boeing’s 787 can be certified. The airframer ...

Researchers in Germany assessed lightning risks in livestock-integrated agrivoltaic systems, identifying key injury mechanisms and establishing safe step and touch voltage limits. Their simulations ...

Most boats and ships usually ride out a thunderstorm and the high winds, tornados, hail, and floods it can produce. But the ESD event called lightning that it creates is a very different situation.
