The resistance and inductance of any conductor, considered parasitic at low frequencies, become significant at high frequencies: when two conductors are close together, these elements will couple and cause electromagnetic interference (inductive crosstalk, surges, etc.). Edith seeks to characterize these parasitic elements and evaluate potential electromagnetic interference in order to protect devices from interfering with each other. This will be achieved either through shielding or insulation.

Edith Clavel's research has many applications, including railways with the TGV high-speed train, printed circuit boards, aeronautics with aircraft fuselages, and more. She is also working with Schneider Electric on a study of lightning protection for buildings and appliances, and with the University Hospital to understand how the body behaves in the event of electrocution. In short, her research has a wide variety of applications, which we invite you to discover in the video.
