Electromagnetic Pulse Environment Studies.
Abstract
A number of investigations related to the development of a near-surface EMP code were carried out. Important considerations in the development of a near-surface burst EMP code include the choice of coordinate system, the form of the electromagnetic field equations that is chosen for solution, the differencing scheme used to represent the field equations, and the choice of boundary conditions applied to the problem to be solved. Such considerations are also affected by requirements that the conductivity and dielectric constant have spatial structure, and that far-field predictions also be provided, either directly or by extrapolation techniques.
