The striking distance and attractive radius of grounded structures to downward lightning
strokes depend significantly on the polarity of the stroke. The paper quantifies the reduction …

In the present work we assess the lightning performance against direct strokes of overhead
distribution lines, making use of the theory of multiconductor transmission lines with …

The maximum shielding failure current of overhead transmission lines is an important
parameter in evaluating the shielding performance of the lines and in insulation coordination …

In this study, the lightning protection system and grounding system of one plant of the
petrochemical industry were investigated, evaluated, and improved. The methods used in …

Shielding failure of overhead transmission lines is a major cause of transmission system
outages, affecting reliability of power supply and resulting in economic losses. In this study …

General expressions for the estimation of lightning incidence to overhead transmission lines
on the basis of electrogeometric and generic models are introduced, which consider …

The paper comprises the first application of the concept of upward leader inception and
propagation to meet the downward negative leader in a final jump, to assess shielding of …

A theoretical analysis of radiation spectra produced during the coherent interaction of
nonrelativistic electrons with crystals has been carried out. The output intensity has been …

This work is devoted to the analysis of voltages produced on overhead distribution lines hit
by direct lightning. We will consider arbitrary terminations at both line ends and, also …

This paper presents a 3-D self-organized model of a downward stepped leader in negative
cloud-to-ground lightning. In the model, the characteristic features of stepped leaders are …
