A Monte Carlo Approach for Simulating Electrical Conductivity in Highly Porous Ceramic Composites: Impact of Internal Structure.

ABSTRACT: Porous ceramic composites play an important role in several applications. This is due to their unique properties resulting from a combination of various materials. Determination of the composite properties and structure is crucial for their further development and optimization. However, composite analysis often requires complex, expensive, and time-demanding experimental work. Mathematical modeling represents an effective tool to substitute experimental approach. The present study employs a Monte Carlo 3D equivalent electronic circuit network model developed to analyze a highly porous composite on the basis of minimum easily obtainable input parameters. Solid oxide cell electrodes were used as a model example, and this study focuses primarily on materials with a porosity of 55% and higher,
