Features of the system are: 1. Complete electrical isolation between the IUS and the instrumentation. 2. Automatic internal test point switching in seconds. 3. No pickup on instrumentation cables. 4. The system can be used in electrical fields of any intensity. 5. No commercial voltage probes used in the IUS. The instrumentation achieves its special properties through the use of two techniques: 1) Voltage signals are brought out of the IUS on a fiber optic data trans mission system; 2) Test point switching is accomplished by sending compressed air to an air operated electrical switch through pl'astic tubing.","PeriodicalId":280076,"journal":{"name":"1982 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"770 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125063684","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Not only the reduced equiva lent conductivity of advanced composites in comparison to metals [ 1], but also the contact resistance along composite-to-composite and metal-to-composite joints, will contribute to a degradation in electromagnetic shielding by such enclosures. It is our purpose in this short paper to investigate one aspect of this problem, the low-frequency magnetic field penetration of a conductive (e.g., graphite-epoxy) composite panel in an otherwise perfectly conducting plane surface 'of infinite transverse extent and infinitesimal thick ness. We assume that the contact conductance between the panel and the surrounding perfect conductor is finite, so as to examine the effect of an imperfect electrical bond on the shielding afforded by the panel. We shall show, by formulating and then by approximately solving an appropriate boundary-value problem of potential theory, that the magnetic aperture polarizability of the composite panel, a m ,","PeriodicalId":280076,"journal":{"name":"1982 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130181320","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A practical realization of the fixture is described. The implemented electrical schematics provides for measurements of transfer impedance and capacitive coupling impedance in both the low and high frequency ranges. The device is designed in the form of a clamp, which significantly facilitates and accelerates the measurements. This permits the required adjustments and changes, as well as sample aging and stability studies to be made without affecting shield evaluation test conditions. Since there is no need to pull the cable through the test chamber tubes and ferrite toroid assemblies, the sample preparation can be made in advance, including the attachment of connectors. Also, connectorized cable assemblies can be tested without taking the connectors off. Still greater advantages and time savings can be gained both in industrial and research applications if the proposed fixture is incorporated in an automatic test system with computerized data processing.","PeriodicalId":280076,"journal":{"name":"1982 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127685041","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Little","doi":"10.1109/ISEMC.1982.7567740","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/ISEMC.1982.7567740","url":null,"abstract":"The most important type of composite material at present in use in the aircraft industry is made up of carbon fibres in an epoxy resin matrix, or carbonfibre composite (CFC). This is rather poorly-conducting fibre1 (1.4 x 10'5fim) embedded in an insulating medium with the fibre volume usually about 60% of the whole. The resistivity of the composite below about 1MHz is independent of frequency and is between two and three orders of magnitude greater than that of aluminium alloy (5.2 x 10\"®nm) if long fibres are used. This is the normal practice for aircraft work. Long fibres are used in 'tows' side by side, or sometimes woven to form a mat, coated with resin, and partially cured (pre-preg).. If chopped fibres are used the resistivity is about two orders of magnitude greater. Using long fibre tows in pre-preg form the direction of each lamina can be determined from the mechanical performance required. The resistance o f the whole material depends on the fibre type, the pattern of lay-up used, the fraction of carbon fibre in the final composite and on the manufacturing process. In unidirectional CFC with current parallel to the fibre direction the dc resistivity is 1.0 x 10” 5fim according to Gajda2 . Values of about 2.0 x 10\"5fim have been obtained by Smithers3 and others for composites having a fibre volume-fraction'of 0.6 to 0.65. The resistivity with current flow perpendicular to the' fibre is several hundred times larger. In multi-ply laminates having a variety of fibre directions the behaviour of the bulk laminate is much more isotropic than the undirectional CFC.","PeriodicalId":280076,"journal":{"name":"1982 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127954104","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
