Contents: Basic electromagnetic theory. Measurements of
electromagnetic fields from lightning. Modelling charge
generation in thunderclouds. How to simulate the electron runaway
processes associated with thundercloud electric fields. Modelling
initiation of lightning flashes. Modelling the stepped leaders to
evaluate their electromagnetic fields. The full theory and
simulation procedures to model the generation of corona from
ground. The four ways of modelling the lightning return stroke.
The theory and calculation procedures to evaluate the internal
electric fields of leaders and return strokes. The effect of
lightning on tall telecommunication towers. The propagation of
lightning electromagnetic fields over grounds of different
conductivities and geometries. The propagation of the
electromagnetic fields around the globe. The study of the
interaction of electromagnetic fields with the upper atmosphere.
Generation of NOx from lightning flashes. How to calculate
induced voltages in power lines.
