ABSTRACT

This chapter explores a comprehensive analytical picture centered around dynamic modeling for the phenomenon of inducing voltage, induced voltage and the corresponding associative function, with respect to the impact area of field effect. Inducing as well as induced voltages have been calculated for the specific case of constant conductive and convective current densities at the source. Information regarding various aspects of the phenomenon of inducing and induced voltage surges produced by lightning points to factual effects of special distribution for the electric current and constant parametric elements in the return stroke. The inducing as well as the induced surges are the result of generalized distribution of bound charges within the local ground terrain. Detailed simulation for the lightning surge, together with a representation for a tested object, will be presented in association with full analysis for the various modes of lightning surge wave form.
