Electrical resistivity tests have been widely conducted in multiple scales, from a few centimeters to kilometers. While electrode spacing is used to define field resistance, laboratory measurements in a limited space need to consider electrode geometry. However, there are no studies that theoretically explore the effects of the geometries of electrodes and container size on laboratory electrical resistivity measurements. This study formulates a theoretical electrical resistance for the geometry of cylindrical electrodes and the size of a non-conductive container with the method of image charges. As a complementary study, experimental tests were conducted to verify the derived equations. The discussion includes the concepts of the spherical equivalent electrodes and a simple design method for container size.

Smart Sensing technologies can play an important role in the conditional assessment of concrete sewer pipe linings. In the long-term, the permeation of acids can deteriorate the pipe linings. Currently, there are no proven sensors available to non-invasively estimate the depth of acid permeation in real-time. The electrical resistivity measurement on the surface of the linings can indicate the sub-surface acid moisture conditions. In this study, we consider acid permeated linings as a two resistivity layer concrete sample, where the top resistivity layer is assumed to be acid permeated and the bottom resistivity layer indicates normal moisture conditions. Firstly, we modeled the sensor based on the four-probe Wenner method. The measurements of the developed model were compared with the previous studies for validation. Then, the sensor model was utilized to study the effects of electrode contact area, electrode spacing distance and two resistivity layered concrete on the apparent resistivity measurements. All the simulations were carried out by varying the thickness of top resistivity layer concrete. The simulation study indicated that the electrode contact area has very minimal effects on apparent resistivity measurements. Also, an increase in apparent resistivity measurements was observed when there is an increase in the distance of the electrode spacing. Further, a machine learning approach using Gaussian process regression modeling was formulated to estimate the depth of acid permeated layer

Microalloying of low carbon steel with niobium (Nb) and titanium (Ti) is standardly applied in high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steels enabling austenite conditioning during thermo-mechanical controlled processing (TMCP), which results in pronounced grain refinement in the finished steel. The metallurgical effects of microalloying elements are related solute drag and precipitate particle pinning, both acting on the austenite grain boundary thereby delaying or suppressing recrystallization of the deformed grain. In that respect it is important to better understand the precipitation kinetics as well as the precipitation sequence in a typical Nb-Ti-microalloyed steel. Various characterization methods have been utilized in this study for tracing microalloy precipitation after simulating different austenite TMCP conditions in a Gleeble apparatus. Atom probe tomography (APT), scanning transmission electron microscopy in a focused ion beam equipped scanning electron microscope (STEM-on-FIB) and electrical resistivity measurements provide complementary information on the precipitation status and are correlated with each other. It will be demonstrated that accurate electrical resistivity measurements can monitor the general consumption of solute microalloys (Nb) during hot working which was complemented by APT measurements of the steel matrix. On the other hand, STEM revealed that a large part of Nb-containing particles during hot working are co-precipitated with titanium during cooling from the austenitizing temperature. Precipitates that form during cooling or isothermal holding can be distinguished from strain-induced precipitates by corroborating STEM measurements with APT results. APT specifically allows obtaining detailed information about the chemical composition of precipitates as well as the distribution of elements inside the particle. Electrical resistivity measurement, on the contrary, provides macroscopic information on the progress of precipitation and can be calibrated by APT. The current paper highlights the complementarity of these methods and shows first results within the framework of a larger study on strain-induced precipitation.

ABSTRACTIn order to describe the role of temperature variation on suppress of broad range of magnetic transition, the effect of annealing on different samples of a Gd-based intermetallic compound (i.e., Gd2Au) is investigated. The X-ray, AC and D.C susceptibility and electrical resistivity measurements for different annealed samples revealed that: (i) A great exchange dispersion is observed in A.C susceptibility (ii) This unstable exchange can be stabilized at certain annealing temperature, where the short rang unstable Ferromagnetic (F.M) breaks down or even changes to an Antiferromagnetic (AF.M) stable state. (iii) The DC susceptibility shows a spin-glass like transition temperature at TN= 61 K, above which the compound exhibits a completely paramagnetic (P.M) behavior and is field independent. (iv) the iso-termal magnetization does not follow the field induced transition (F.I.T) and behaves completely as a paramagnet which is independent of the field up to the highest available fields. The electrical resistivity measurement shows: a) A pronounced sharp bend at TN=61 K is manifested in ρ(T). b)some strong peak of X-ray pattern change into double adjacent lines in some intervals of low temperatures

The aim of this paper is the selections of proper electrode material for four-probe technique electrical resistivity measurement of aluminium and aluminium alloys. The biggest problem of electrodes is oxidation during measurement causing high contact resistance and giving wrong results. Various materials have been tested and aluminium electrodes have been chosen. Advantage of aluminium electrodes is that they are melted in specimen right after the pouring and causing no interface which is resulting with any contact resistance. The device together with measuring cell for ?in situ? measurement of electrical resistivity was developed using four-probe DC technique.

ABSTRACTThis paper reports experiments in which in situ electrical resistivity measurements were used to monitor the formation of dislocations in initially dislocation-free NiAl single crystals. The electrical resistivity is found to exhibit an abrupt jump at the onset of plastic yielding. This is interpreted to result from an abrupt nucleation of a massive density of dislocations at the yield point.
