Numerous evidence suggests that thick-film resistors are close to a metal– insulator transition and that tunneling processes between metallic grains are the main source of resistance. By theoretical analysis of various percolative resistor network models w ...
The present study has been achieved within the framework of the scientific program AQUALP, supported by the EVIAN Foundation. Its theme is the study of the hydrogeology of the Alpine crystalline. The AQUALP programme consists of two co-coordinated parts : ...
The piezoresistive effect of thick-film resistors has found widespread application in pressure and force sensors due to their high strain-sensitivity, stability and low-cost. The main material requirements for these applications are a high piezoresistive r ...
We propose a model of transport in thick-film resistors which naturally explains the observed nonuniversal values of the conductance exponent t extracted in the vicinity of the percolation transition. Essential ingredients of the model are the segregated m ...
The frequent use of earth materials for hydraulic capping and waste containment requires improved understanding of relationships between soil mechanical dynamics and its hydraulic and transport properties. We study deformation of pores embedded in viscopla ...
The continuous time random walk approach for hopping conduction in disordered systems is modified to obtain accurate DC conductivity values over a wide range of hopping site densities. The modification involves eliminating a small fraction of particularly ...
Contaminant transport in structured soil systems is often characterised by early and asymmetric breakthrough curves. These phenomena are usually interpreted using the mobile/immobile region model, which is suitable for the simulation of nonequilibrium proc ...
Platinum resistance thermometry has been used for temperature measurement in situ in a high-pressure vessel up to 360 MPa. Commercially available 100 Omega platinum resistors have been calibrated against pressure for temperatures between -60 and +100 degre ...
The influence exerted by the shape of randomly oriented non-conducting inclusions on the electrical conductivity of a metal is investigated using the aluminum-sit icon eutectic alloy. By varying the time and temperature of heat treatment after solidificati ...
The authors present the percolation and electronic properties of (Y1Ba2Cu3O7-δ)1-xAgx compounds in which silver fills the intergranular space without reducing Tc, which remains at 92±1 K. Normal-state resistivity is decreased by up to two orders of magnitu ...
