An enclosed metal shell acting as a Faraday cage can offer protection from lightning and other electrical effects. Furthermore since the physics of the matter is so complex, it can be very difficult to distinguish between real science and the kind of baseless pseudo science that plagues the lightning protection industry. In the lightning protection design of WTs, the need exists for determining the lightning transient responses on the WT tower since the tower body is the longest conducting path of lightning current in the WT structure. This event will address the lightning community of the Asian-Pacific region and its link to the world and at the same time enhance the communication among atmospheric electricity, lightning physics and protection fields.

Tesla wrote in his 1916 Patent #1266175 for Lightning Protection “I produced artificial lightning, coupled up to many times that in nature with my Tower, Wardenclyffe” and sent power wirelessly, without loss to any point on the earth. These particles Spam protection by WP Captcha-Free. "According to Northeastern University physicists Stephen Reucroft and John Swain, a lightning bolt carries a few million joules of energy, enough to power a 100-watt bulb for 5.5 hours. More than 20 years ago, physicist Alex Gurevich at the Russian Academy of Sciences in Moscow suggested lightning might be initiated by cosmic rays from outer space. But there were issues associated with different regulation and administration. Posted by Alton Parrish at 12:13 AM. Specifically, DARPA seeks validated models on the natural lightning process, a means of triggering lightning within a storm intentionally, and strategies for protecting a given area from lightning strikes during a storm by somehow reducing the probability that lightning will strike there. If you can't guess what happened by the title then here it is: I sketch noted a seminar that was explained over twitter. Because the lightning stepping process determines where lightning travels and ultimately what it strikes, understanding this process is crucial for lightning protection and safety. The lightning initiation processes in the thundercloud have been relatively inaccessible to http://www.darpa.mil/dso/solicitations/solicit.htm. Previously, UL96A required surge protectors evaluated as secondary arrestors for lightning protection systems. Knight, R.D., Physics for Scientists and Engineers with Modern Physics, Pearson, 2004.

Hosted by Bill Jenkins, formerly of ABC Radio, this comprehensive documentary features physicists and inventors who are challenging orthodox science to bring this non-polluting technology forward despite ridicule and suppression.
