Abstract
The ARROW project (Aircraft lightning thReat Reduction thrOugh Wiring optimization) is a research project, funded by the European Community in the framework of the CleanSky program. The project aims at the development of an accurate and reliable modelling method of the indirect effects of lightning on cable-harness configurations installed aboard aircraft of today's technology, including composite materials and current return networks. The proposed numerical methodology links a three-dimensional full wave electromagnetic solver with a MLTN, which allows design as well as optimization of the wiring itself. This contribution reports about the modelling procedure, the mathematical formulation and some validation results of the developed numerical code.
