Product Description
Lightning Physics and Lightning Protection presents a comprehensive and up-to-date review of lightning including its hazards and protection techniques. The authors first discuss the effectiveness of conventional protective measures supply technical advice and practical recommendations and explore the prospects for the preventive control of a lightning leader followed by a discussion of the initiation of a leader and return stroke and subsequent components. After including measurements useful for understanding lightning and its effects the book describes the mechanism of lightning discharge processes. It then examines the effects of large aircraft high-voltage lines and other high-altitude constructions on lightning trajectory and leader attraction. The book concludes by studying the action of lightning's electrical and magnetic fields and the lightning current on industrial premises power transmission lines underground communications aircraft and their electrical circuits and the induction of a dangerous overvoltage. A clear straightforward and systematic presentation of complicated material Lightning Physics and Lightning Protection provides deep insight into the physics of lightning simple analytical estimates and a detailed illustration of effects by computer simulation making this resource essential for those who investigate lightning phenomena and who have to solve practical protection problems.

If you've changed your mind and no longer want an item, you can still request a return, but the seller doesn't have to accept it. If the buyer changes their mind about a purchase and wants to return an item, they may need to pay return postage costs, depending on the seller's return policy. Sellers can provide a return postage address and additional return postage information for the buyer. Sellers pay for return postage if there's a problem with the item. For example, if the item doesn't match the listing description, is damaged or defective or is counterfeit. By law, customers in the European Union also have the right to cancel the purchase of an item within 14 days beginning from the day you receive, or a third party indicated by you (other than the carrier) receives, the last good ordered by you (if delivered separately). This applies to all products except for digital items (e.g. Digital Music) that are provided immediately to you with your acknowledgement, and other items such as video, DVD, audio, video games, Sex and Sensuality products and software products where the item has been unsealed.
Refunds
Sellers have to offer a refund for certain items only if they are faulty, such as: Personalised items and custom-made items, Perishable items, Newspapers and magazines, Unwrapped CDs DVDs and computer software. If you used your PayPal balance or bank account to fund the original payment, the refunded money will go back to your PayPal account balance. If you used a credit or debit card to fund the original payment, the refunded money will go back to your card. The seller will effect the refund within three working days but it may take up to 30 days for Paypal to process the transfer. For payments funded partially by a card and partially by your balance/bank, the money taken from your card will go back to your card and the remainder will return to your PayPal balance.
