This study explores the process of corporate corruption via a percolation-based system dynamics model. The preliminary model is an agent-based model constructed in the terms of the corruption networking between ego and other. In the model, the agents behave depending on percolation rules, which represent (1) passing on the corruption opportunities and (2) accepting it. To describe the percolation process in the networks, we develop a further complicated model by combining the basic model with the Bethe lattice. Through the complicated model, we suggest (1) the dynamics of the systemic corporate corruption, (2) 4 patterns of the corruption, and (3) the institutionalization of the corruption. These simulation results provide theoretical and practical implications.

CNT 보강 시멘트 페이스트의 침투 임계점은 자기감지 콘크리트의 감지 성능 극대화를 위한 최적 CNT 혼입량과 밀접한 관련이 있다. 하지만 침투임계점은 사용된 시멘트, CNT 그리고 물 시멘트 비에 따라 다양한 값을 가지며, 이를 얻기 위해서는 실험기반의 다수의 시행착오가 불가피하다. 이 연구는 CNT 보강 시멘트 페이스트의 침투 임계점 예측을 위한 침투 시뮬레이션 모델을 제안하였다. 제안된 모델은 CNT 그리고 시멘트 특성을 사용하여 CNT 혼입량에 따른 침투를 시뮬레이션할 수 있으며, 이를 위해 응집된 CNT 입자 수 개념이 사용되었다. 침투 시뮬레이션 과정은 미수화 시멘트 페이스트 모델 형성, CNT 랜덤분산, 그리고 침투 조사의 순서로 구성된다. 시뮬레이션에는 물 시멘트 비가 0.4-0.6인 CNT 보강 시멘트 페이스트가 사용되었으며, 시뮬레이션 된 침투 임계점은 문헌 결과 대비 최대 7.5 %의 시뮬레이션 잔차율로 높은 정확도를 보였다.

The percolation of interfacial transition zone (ITZ) in cementitious materials is of great importance to the transport properties and durability issues. This paper presents numerical simulation research on the ITZ percolation threshold of mortar specimens at meso-scale. To simulate the meso-scale model of mortar as realistically as possible, the aggregates are simplified as ellipsoids with arbitrary orientations. Major and minor aspect ratios are defined to represent the global shape characteristics of aggregates. Some algorithms such as the burning algorithm, Dijkstra's algorithm and Connected-Component Labeling (CCL) algorithm are adopted for identification of connected ITZ clusters and percolation detection. The effects of gradation and aspect ratios of aggregates on ITZ percolation threshold are quantitatively studied. The results show that (1) the ITZ percolation threshold is mainly affected by the specific surface area (SSA) of aggregates and shows a global decreasing tendency with an increasing SSA; (2) elongated ellipsoidal particles can effectively bridge isolated ITZ clusters and thus lower the ITZ percolation threshold; (3) as ITZ volume fraction increases, the bridging effect of elongated particles will be less significant, and has only a minor effect on ITZ percolation threshold; (4) it is the ITZ connectivity that is essentially responsible for ITZ percolation threshold, while other factors such as SSA and ITZ volume fraction are only the superficial reasons.

A composite plastic, where long metallic fibers are used as filling materials, is transformed from nonconducting to conducting medium as the volume fraction of filling metallic fibers is increased from zero : such drastic change in property is called the percolation. It is desired both for practical and theoretical purposes to understand the physics underlying the percolation and to estimate the percolation threshold that is defined by the minimum volume fraction of the metallic fibers for which the percolation occurs. In this study, percolation thresholds are calculated by Monte Carlo Computer simulation. Both lattice and continuum spaces are considered and detailed microstructures of metallic fibers are modelled as rigid and flexible bodies for both model spaces. Simulations are carried out for wide range of aspect ratios and discussions are given.

The electrical property of polymer matrix composites with added carbon powder is studied based on the temperature dependency of the conduction mechanism. The temperature coefficient of the resistance of the polymer matrix composites below the percolation threshold (x) changed from negative to positive at 0.20 < x < 0.21; this trend decreased with increasing of the percolation threshold. The temperature dependence of the electrical property(resistivity) of the polymer matrix composites below the percolation threshold can be explained by using a tunneling conduction model that incorporates the effect of the thermal expansion of the polymer matrix composites into the tunneling gap. The temperature coefficient of the resistance of the polymer matrix composites above the percolation threshold has a positive value; its absolute value increased with increasing volume fraction of carbon powder. By assuming that the electrical conduction through the percolating paths is a thermally activated process and by incorporating the effect of thermal expansion into the volume fraction of the carbon power, the temperature dependency of the resistivity above the percolation threshold can be well explained without violating the universal law of conductivity.

In this paper two aspects of the percolation and conductivity of carbon black-filled polyethylene matrix composites will be discussed. Firstly, the percolation behavior, the critical exponent of conductivity of these composites, are discussed based on studying the whole change of resistivity, the relationship between frequency and relative permittivity or ac conductivity. There are two transitions of resistivity for carbon black filling. Below the first transition, resistivity shows an ohmic behavior and its value is almost the same as that of the matrix. Between the first and second transition, the change in resistivity is very sharp, and a non-ohmic electric field dependence of current has been observed. Secondly, the electrical conduction property of the carbon black-filled polyethylene matrix composites below the percolation threshold is discussed with the hopping conduction model. This study investigates the electrical conduction property of the composites below the percolation threshold based on the frequency dependence of conductivity in the range of 20 Hz to 1 MHz. There are two components for the observed ac loss current. One is independent of frequency that becomes prevalent in low frequencies just below the percolation threshold and under a high electrical field. The other is proportional to the frequency of the applied ac voltage in high frequencies and its origin is not clear. These results support the conclusion that the electrical conduction mechanism below the percolation threshold is tunneling.

Temperature dependency of resistivity of the carbon black-polyethylene composites below and above percolation threshold is studied based on the electrical conduction mechanism. Temperature coefficient of resistance of the composites below percolation threshold changed from minus to plus, increasing volume fraction of carbon black; this trend decreased with increasing volume fraction of carbon black. The temperature dependence of resistivity of the composites below percolation threshold can be explained with a tunneling conduction model by incorporating the effect of thermal expansion of the composites into a tunneling gap. Temperature coefficient of resistance of the composites above percolation threshold was positive and its absolute value increased with increasing volume fraction of carbon black. By assuming that the electrical conduction through percolating paths is a thermally activated process and by incorporating the effect of thermal expansion into the volume fraction of carbon black, the temperature dependency of the resistivity above percolation threshold has been well explained without violating the universal law of conductivity. The apparent activation energy is estimated to be 0.14 eV.

본 논문에서는 퍼콜레이션 이론적 관점에 기초한 복소 유전율의 수치모델을 제시하고, 전기 전도성이 뛰어난 카본 블랙을 혼합한 유리섬유/에폭시 복합재료 적층판의 복소 유전율을 이용하여 이 깃을 검증하였다. 제시된 모델은 카본 블랙의 함유율이 퍼콜레이션 임계함유율 보다 높고, 주파수가 충분히 높아서 복합재료의 교류 전기전도도가 주파수에 비례하는 구간에서의 복소 유전율을 모사한다. 복합재료의 복소 유전율은 벡터회로망분석기와 7 mm 동축관을 이용하여 $0.5\;GHz\;{\sim}18\;GHz$ 대역에서 측정되었다. 제시된 모델은 퍼콜레이션 이론에서 유용하게 사용되는 축척(눈금잡이) 법칙의 함수형태와 실험을 통하여 구한 상수들로 구성되어 있으며, 복소 유전율을 주파수와 가본 블랙의 함유율의 함수로 나타내었다. 제시된 모델은 복소 유전율을 측정결과와의 비교를 통하여 검증되었다.

In order to send the information certainly via the network against the packet lost caused by hardware troubles or limitation of packet transferring, we must construct reliable network infrastructure. However, it is difficult to construct comfortable network early if we construct rely on the prediction or the experience through a lot of troubles. In this paper, we propose the method to construct reliable network infrastructure based on the computer network simulation. This simulation is based on the percolation model. Percolation model is known as the model that represents connections. We gave some simulations for the various network topologies: the square lattice network, the cubic lattice network, and the full connection type network.
