Modeling the conductivity of nanotube networks

We analyze electrical processes in a complex system composed of a large number of elements using statistical computer simulations as a primary tool. This study is important as it helps to understand sophisticated phenomena that take place in various real-world systems such as nanocomposites or conductive polymers. Developed approach and software can be applied in environmental sciences, as mentioned systems are often the subject of study of physicists, chemists and material science researchers.
