When a conducting partially-transparent mesh is used to separate two region
s of different electrostatic field strength there are short-range changes t
o the held and potential distributions in the vicinity of the mesh and also
long-range changes far from the mesh. The forms and magnitudes of these ch
anges are investigated computationally for meshes that consist of parallel
or crossed round wires or crossed flat strips. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.
