The FDTD method in General Coordinates (LN-FDTD) was implemented for analyzing structures not coincident to the Cartesian coordinate system. The method solves the Maxwells equations in time domain, allowing the calculation of data concerning the transitory and steady-state responses of such structures. The method is applied to analyze of special grounding electrodes. A new formulation for the truncating technique UPML, for conductive media, referred here as LN-UPML, was developed and implemented in order to make the simulations viable. A new methodology for locating grounding grid faults using two Artificial Neural Networks is presented. The LN-FDTD software was tested and validated though simulations of various grounding systems. A graphical user interface, named LANE SAGS, was implemented to simplify the use and to automate the data processing.

Proposta de novas técnicas de modelagem para estudo da redução do potencial de passo e aterramento por elementos de circuito
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2007-08-01) ARAÚJO, Humberto Xavier de; SOUZA SOBRINHO, Carlos Leônidas da Silva; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1450994881555781
This work presents new techniques to reduce the step potential in grounding systems, as well as analysis regarding others present in the literature. For this goal, some resources were employed, such as to bent the mesh grounding borders (Umbrella Model) and the use of ramifications on the grounding rods (Fractal Model). The obtained results clearly show that the proposals are promising and efficient, mainly when dealing with a problem of large importance for people and equipment security. Reductions up to 85% in the step potential were obtained. It is also proposed here, the employment of lumped parameteres circuit elements, aiming at a ground system model capable to operate in any kind of the existing grounds. In order to analyze the structures, a software was utilized in which Maxwell’s equations are numerically solved by the FDTD Method associated to the UPML technique, and thin wires in a lossy medium.
