Lightning strike protection for composite structures
Three common problems using AFP (Automated Fiber Placement) process
1. Tape deformation and tape breaks
makes it hard to control the gap between the tapes
2. Voids in reinforced composite structure
raise concerns about material integrity
3. Trade-off between weight and conductivity
Better conductivity = thicker copper = more weight (copper or resin)
