Abstract :
This article presents an analysis of the suitability and limits of the mesh current method for computing the current distribution in conductor surfaces. Three problems encountered in practical work are described as possible applications for the method: the computing of the ground bounce to be expected in a ground plane, the inductance change of a current loop with the signal frequency and the protective damping of a conducting plate against magnetic disturbance
