Summary on Grant Application Form
Implement an efficient numerical model for determining the penetration of electromagnetic radiation through thin panels. Validate the model using analytical methods and manufacturers test data. develop and implement a modelling methodology to study the penetration of radiation through three-dimensional cabinets of realistic shapes containing apertures and wire penetrations. Undertake some experimental work for code validation. Determine the influence on the shielding effectiveness of cabinets of material parameters such as dielectric constant, magnetic permeability and electrical conductivity and physical parameters such as shape and the positioning of features such as apertures, components and absorbers. Identify optimum design solutions and methodologies in a broad range of applications including automotive and information technology equipment.
