Abstract

The behavior of carbon fiber – plasma composite in strong pulse fields is investigated. Itis shown that the principal current travels through the plasma which shunts the resistance of the carbon fiber, preserving the fiber against complete disintegration. The contribution of the fiber to the conduction of the composite is determined by the bias current that arises as a consequence of the polarization of is dielectric component in an alternating electrical field.
