Abstract :
The increased use of carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) in aeronautic industry and the large scale installation of electrical systems in new aircrafts have led to the development of specific models to understand current distributions into composite materials. For instance, the analysis of a short circuit on a carbon structural element inside an aircraft cannot be analysed using standard methods supposing linear behaviour of the composite. Thus, this paper presents an innovative approach to model the dynamic electrical behaviour of a CFRP material during a short circuit.
