Electromagnetic Characterization and Measurement of Conductive Aircraft CFRP Composite for Lightning Protection and EMI Shielding
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper presents a new conductive carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) aircraft composite and its electromagnetic characterization for tackling the lightning direct effect and enhancing the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (SE). The CFRP composite design is deliberated for ameliorating the electrical conductivity of composite. With the aid of equivalent medium modeling, the inherent electromagnetic properties of the composite have been investigated. The simulated results illustrate that the lightning strike protection (LSP) capability and the electromagnetic shielding behavior of the newly developed aircraft composite have been improved as compared to the original neat CFRP composite, and comparable to that with copper mesh as a protective layer on top. Moreover, an artificial lightning experiment has been carried out in accordance with SAE ARP5416 by mimicking the natural lightning strike attachment. The shielding effectiveness of the proposed composite prototype has also been measured by using electromagnetic waveguide transmission line method. The physical experiments have effectively validated the simulation results and demonstrated the feasibility of the proposed conductive CFRP composite on LSP and SE.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
