商品簡介
Providing technical advice and practical recommendations as well as a grounding in the mechanisms of lightning, this guide is for a wide audience of professional and advanced students of physics, geophysics, electric-, radio-, aircraft-, and spacecraft engineering. Bazelyan and Raizer (both of whom are Russian engineers) cover the mechanisms of lightning discharge processes; the effects of high terrestrial structures, high- voltage lines, and large aircraft on lightning trajectory and leader attraction; the action of lightning's electrical and magnetic fields and the lightning current on industrial premises, power transmission lines, underground communications, aircraft and their electrical circuits, and the induction of dangerous overvoltages; and the effectiveness of conventional protective measures.
