Analysis of the conductance transient in thick film tin oxide gas sensors
(Elsevier, 1996-03)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn this paper, we analyse the conductance transient of a Taguchi TGS-822 sensor under a step change in the vapour concentration. A diffusion-limited range in the conductance transient is observed. Adjustments between the ... -

Decay of waves in strain gradient porous elasticity with Moore-Gibson-Thompson dissipation
(2022-09-05)
Article
Open AccessWe study a one-dimensional problem arising in strain gradient porous-elasticity. Three different Moore–Gibson–Thompson dissipation mechanisms are considered: viscosity and hyperviscosity on the displacements, and weak ... -
