PhD students awarded

Fidele Moupfouma, who works at Bombardier Aerospace (in Montreal, Canada) and obtained a Ph. D from Telecom ParisTech (1982), has received the prestigious Arch. T. Colwell Merit Award awarded by for a paper presented at Toulouse in 2011, in which he demonstrated by a physico-mathematical study that “the electromagnetic coupling of lightning currents or strong fields with cables that interconnect avionic systems in common mode operate completely differently in a composite aircraft compared to a metal one. To conclude, the existing EUROCAE (Europe) or RTCA (USA) test standards for common mode systems that were developed for metal aircraft are not adapted to the reality of composite aircraft and under-estimate the effects of electromagnetic threat.” April 2013
