Abstract :
In this paper, a complex electromagnetic model for the SFRC is derived, and a mathematical model for the obtention of the effective relative permittivity is described. A static analysis setup is presented and results of a two weeks duration analysis are analyzed. Finally, some preliminary conclusions for the time-dependence behaviour of SFRC are formulated.
