Lightning Shielding Advanced
SHIELD_A can be can be used for the lightning shielding design using the Rolling Sphere method and can be used for the evaluation of the protection against direct lightning strokes of special structures of any height and shape.
SHIELD_A is highly appreciated for its power and accuracy.

SHIELD_A is a powerful full 3D graphical application for the evaluation of the protection of structures from direct lightning strokes using the Rolling Sphere method. SHIELD is based on analytical model that consider vertical and lateral direct lightning strokes, and is then suitable for special structures of any height and shape.
Unlike SHIELD, SHIELD_A can also consider structures with significant protrusions, for instance wind towers, and has been developed mainly for lightning specialists. In essence, SHIELD_A was developed for all applications where SHIELD cannot be used, and is intended to be complementary to SHIELD.
