ORLANDO, Fla. – Every year, lightning strikes cause house fires, power surges, and costly property damage. It happened just last week in Ormond Beach — but the good news is, many of these impacts are ...
Lightning protection in photovoltaic (PV) systems is a critical area of study as these installations are increasingly exposed to atmospheric discharges that can substantially disrupt energy production ...
A Nottingham firm that has protected buildings around the world from lightning strikes for more than 130 years, says climate change is pushing demand for its services. Electrical engineering company ...
A carbon fiber tip offering lightning strike protection for wind turbine blades has been developed by researchers at the U.S. DOE’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). The blade tip, which is being ...
Swiss physicists have achieved a groundbreaking breakthrough in lightning control using laser beams, which could lead to advanced lightning protection systems for critical infrastructure such as ...
As the use of carbon fibre composites increases in aircraft manufacturing, so does the need for EMI shielding and lightning strike protection [1-4]. Lightning strike protection usually takes the form ...
ORNL researcher Vipin Kumar, an expert in lightning strike protection for airborne composites, inspects the wind turbine blade tip before he and his team remove it from a mold at DOE’s Carbon Fiber ...
It was the terrible prospect of lightning one day striking the historic windmill that troubled Andrew Farrell. A bolt five times hotter than the surface of the sun instantly turning moisture in one of ...
