Lightning strike probability and current simulation for simple structures and floating roof tank

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2022
Air terminations must be strategically positioned at high-risk points to prevent lightning bypass. The likelihood of a direct lightning strike to points on a building can be evaluated using the dynamic electro-geometrical model (DEGM), which considers ...

When Lightning Strikes [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of Family Medicine, 2011
The annual probability of being struck by lightning in the United States is estimated to be about 1 in 280,000, with about 90% surviving erlands,[2][1] the annual probability of a family physician receiving a complaint from that country’s disciplinary tribunal is about 1 in 960,000.
