Notebook on Electromagnetic Properties of Composite Materials Below 1 GHz

摘要

This report is the seventh in a series of reports on the electromagnetic properties of composites materials. The report quantitatively delineates: the vast differences in electromagnetic behavior exhibited by the principle composite materials (Graphite/epoxy & Kelvar), how to predict these different properties based on the materials intrinsic electrical properties (conductivity, permeability and permittivity) and how the airframe shape influences electromagnetic coupling. The electromagnetic threats of lightning electromagnetic pulse (LEMP), nuclear Electromagnetic PUlse (NEMP). (Author)
