Electromagnetic Shielding and Corrosion Protection for Aerospace Vehicles

Civil and military aircraft – and aerospace vehicles in general – face two related problems: - They depend heavily upon electronic systems and thus must be shielded against electromagnetic interference (EMI). This interference may come in the form of lighting strikes, interference from radio emitter...

Description
Summary:Civil and military aircraft – and aerospace vehicles in general – face two related problems: - They depend heavily upon electronic systems and thus must be shielded against electromagnetic interference (EMI). This interference may come in the form of lighting strikes, interference from radio emitters, nuclear electromagnetic pulses (EMP), or even high power microwave (HPM) threats - Environmental conditions including moisture, rain, and pollution from the atmosphere may corrode airframes, skin, and other bonded joints. Most importantly, this corrosion may damage the conductivity and electromagnetic shielding of the vehicle This book addresses both problems.
