    Författare :Mohd Riduan Ahmad; Vernon Cooray; Mahbubur Rahman; Rajeev Thottappillil; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Latitude; Lightning; Narrow bipolar pulse; Wireless network.; Engineering Science with specialization in Atmospheric Discharges; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot atmosfäriska urladdningar;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, the features of electric field signatures of narrow bipolar pulses (NBPs) generated by cloud flashes are investigated and their effects on wireless communication systems are studied. A handful amount of NBPs (14.5%) have been observed to occur as part of cloud-to-ground flashes in South Malaysia. LÄS MER

  2. 7. On the Attachment of Lightning Flashes to Grounded Structures

    Författare :Marley Becerra; Vernon Cooray; Rajeev Thottappillil; Mats Boman; Ivo Gallimberti; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Engineering physics; Lightning; Lightning attachment; Positive leader discharges; Lightning protection; Thunderstorms; Numerical modeling; Teknisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the physical modeling of the initiation and propagation of upward positive leader discharges from grounded structures during lightning strikes. It includes the analysis of upward leaders initiated under the influence of the electric field produced by a dominant negative cloud charge and due to the combined action of a negative thundercloud and a descending downward stepped negative leader.

  3. 8. Temporal and Wavelet Characteristics of Initial Breakdown and Narrow Bipolar Pulses of Lightning Flashes

    Författare :Mona Riza Mohd Esa; Vernon Cooray; Mahbubur Rahman; Farhad Rachidi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Initial breakdown; Lightning flash; Narrow bipolar pulse; Temporal-Wavelet characterization; Engineering Science with specialization in Atmospheric Discharges; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot atmosfäriska urladdningar;

    Sammanfattning : Temporal and wavelet characteristics of initial breakdown pulses are meticulously studied especially during the earliest moment of lightning events. Any possible features during the earliest moment that may exist which lead to either negative cloud-to-ground (CG), positive cloud-to-ground, cloud or isolated breakdown flashes in Sweden are investigated.

  4. 9. Experimental Observations and Theoretical Modeling of Lightning Interaction with Tall Objects

    Författare :Helin Zhou; Rajeev Thottappillil; Gerhard Diendorfer; Daohong Wang; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tall objects; Upward lightning initiation; Charge density distribution; Upward positive lightning; Upward bipolar lightning;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates various discharge processes associated with upward lightning initiated from tall objects, both experimentally and theoretically, trying to bridge the knowledge-gap in understanding the mechanisms of the phenomena.Upward lightning initiation has attracted a great deal of interest during recent years due to the proliferation of tall communication towers and wind turbines.

  5. 10. Simulation of lightning electromagnetic fields and their interaction with low voltage power installations : By Arturo Galván Diego

    Författare :Arturo Galván Diego; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Lightning electromagnetic field; electromagnetic interaction; low voltage power installation; lightning induced voltage; transient response; Fysik; Physics; Fysik; Electricity; Esp The Study Of Transients and Discharges; elektricitetslära; ssk studiet av transienter och urladdning;

    Sammanfattning : An increasing number of damages of electric nature are being observed on modem electronic sensitiveequipment connected to low voltage power installation (LVPI) networks when they are exposed tolightning electromagnetic fields (LEMPs), or indeed, any other electromagnetic pulse (EMP). The wayin which these fields affect the electronic equipment depends on the properties of the interferencesource, the electromagnetic interaction and the hardness of the device. LÄS MER
