Carbon fiber reinforced cement is a smart material due to its sensing ability, which is based on piezoresistivity. A finite element model for simulating the measurement of electrical resistance in this material is provided. The measured four-probe resistance decreases with increasing distance between the adjacent voltage and current contacts. For a beam of size 320 × 40 × 40 mm3, the minimum di...

We calculate the flux flow resistivity in a superconductor with multiple s-wave superconducting gaps. Our result agrees well with anomalous field dependence of the resistivity recently observed in the two-gap superconductor MgB2.

The market for SiC devices is growing rapidly in Asia, US and Europe. Applications include heterojunction transistors where SiC emitters allow forming high gain, high speed, and radiation hardened devices. SiC is particularly attractive for the power device manufacturers due to its wide band gap and high thermal conductivity. For all applications, the electrical properties of the SiC epitaxial ...

the current youth market is characterized as tech-savvy, variety seekers who has been active in using digital technology in unprecedented ways. the market segment defined here comprises of youth adults between the ages 20 to 30, who are more comfortable with purchasing the smartphones than previous generation. there is fierce competition in smartphone market, due to the large selection of devic...

Contactless measurements are attractive and more commonly used because they do not contaminate the sample and generally do not require sample preparation. After an outline of the more common contactless characterization techniques, I will discuss a few of these in more detail. In particular resistivity or doping density profiling, minority carrier lifetime, stress, temperature, layer thickness,...

An automatic technique is developed for integrating two electrical resistivity logs obtained during Leg 133, namely, the deep induction log (ILD) and the spherically focussed log (SFL). These logs are routinely run by the Ocean Drilling Program in lower resistivity sedimentary environments, where drilling through soft, poorly consolidated lithologies often results in variable hole diameters. Ex...

A brief summary of the importance of the electrical resistivity of rocks in geothermal exploration is given as well as some of its is main relationships with some of the characteristics of geothermal reservoirs. Special emphasis is on the resistivity of rocks in high temperature geothermal fields where the dominant factor is the hydrothermal mineral alteration and how it relates to temperature....

It is known that the three important parameters: resistivity, capillary pressure, and relative permeability, are all a function of fluid saturation in a porous medium. This implies that there may be a correlation among the three parameters. There have been many papers on the approach to inferring relative permeability from capillary pressure data. However the literature on the interrelationship...

In their recent paper, Roberts et aL (1979) report the following values of intracellular (i), extracellular (o), longitudinal (<f), and transverse (t) resistivity for canine ventricular muscle: r^ = 450 ohms-cm, rot = 750 ohm-cm, ru = 360 ohm-cm, and rit = 3800 ohm-cm. The ratio W r ^ is 1.67. In an earlier paper, Clerc (1976) reported the following resistivity ratios for trabecular bundles fro...

The magnetotelluric method has improved significantly in recent years and is being used in hydrocarbon exploration in regions where seismic exploration is difficult. This includes areas where highvelocity carbonates and volcanic rocks are present in the near surface, overthrust belts, and in subsalt imaging. Magnetotelluric exploration was used in the Rocky Mountain Foothills in 2002 to determi...
