The advent of complex intelligent structures and low-voltage
electronic installations within buildings requires increasingly
sophisticated lightning protections techniques. As a multimedia
book, "Fundamentals of Lightning and Lightning Protection" is a
unique, interactive self-teaching tool that provides an in-depth
understanding of lightning protection.
"Fundamentals of Lightning and Lightning Protection" helps the
reader to understand the propagation of waves within complex
intelligent structures within buildings, and the operation of
systems designed to protect these structures. It also comments on
proper human behaviour during a lightning thunderstorm. Accompanied
by a web-based animation program http: //www.wiley.com/go.horvath
Shows the fundamental processes of the lightning phenomenon, and
helps the reader to understand the measures of protection against
lightning damage. Offers a new theory and calculation method to
estimate the efficiency of lightning air termination systems, which
helps to evaluate the residual risk of the lightning protection
system. Examines the propogation of waves and the associated
protection of intelligent systems against lightning electromagnetic
impulses.
This interactive teaching tool is designed for senior
undergraduate and postgraduate students in electrical engineering,
construction, physics and meteorology. It will also provide a
valuable resource for practitioners within electric power
distribution, electronics, informatics & construction
safety.
