A Comprehensive Framework for Direct Lightning-Structure-Human Interaction Modelling in Heritage Monuments and Safety Assessment

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
Lightning is a perilous and unavoidable event of nature that presents major deleterious consequences on humans, tall structures, electrical power systems, forests, etc. Though several research studies have been carried out to analyse the sufficiency of a

Fire in the Earth System

open access: yesScience, 2009
Burn, Baby, Burn Wildfires can have dramatic and devastating effects on landscapes and human structures and are important agents in environmental transformation. Their impacts on nonanthropocentric aspects of the environment, such as ecosystems, biodiversity, carbon reserves, and climate, are often overlooked.

Feasibility analysis of neutral grounding by small reactor of HVDC converter transformer

open access: yesEnergy Reports, 2022
Nowadays, the scale of power grid is remarkably increasing and there is a continuous reinforcement of AC–DC hybrid systems. Thus, the single-phase grounding fault currents on the AC grid-side of rectifier and inverter stations increase significantly ...

The Earth systems and Earth science informatics [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Science Informatics, 2008
Earth scientists collect, store, manage, process, and organize data about the different components of the Earth system, and about natural and simulated processes. The transition from data to information is achieved through computation, visualization, and other processes that make the data more meaningful to the scientists.

The Lehtinen–Pirjola method modified for efficient modelling of geomagnetically induced currents in multiple voltage levels of a power network [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2022
The need for accurate assessment of the geomagnetic hazard to power systems is driving a requirement to model geomagnetically induced currents (GIC) in multiple voltage levels of a power network.

Effect of Impulse Polarity on a New Grounding Device with Spike Rods (GDSR)

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
The characterizations of grounding systems subjected to high impulse conditions are known to be dependent on the polarity, current to peak time and discharge time, as well as the electrical properties of the soil, and the grounding electrodes themselves.

Earth Systems: [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2001
Imagine that we could let the world's economy continue to grow, bring the disadvantaged classes up from poverty and at the same time not threaten the atmosphere or global ecosystems with unprecedented build-up of greenhouse gases and the projected climatic risks of such growth.

Earth Observing System AM1 mission to Earth [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 1998
In 1998, NASA launches EOS-AMI, the first of a series of the Earth Observing System (EOS) satellites. EOS will monitor the evolution of the state of the earth for 18 years, starting with the morning observations of EOS-AM1 (10:30 a.m. equatorial crossing time).
