Earlier researches have confirmed that polymeric cables suffer from serious water tree degradation under combined stresses of electrical, thermal and chemical, thus shortening the lifespan of the cables. This paper aims at proposing a methodology using Finite Element Method (FEM) and Artificial Neur...
