In this study, the transport theorem of phonons and electrons is utilized to create a model to predict the thermal conductivity of composite materials. By observing or assuming the dopant displacement in the matrix, a physical model between dopant and matrix can be built, and the composite material can be divided into several regions. In each region, the phonon or electron scattering caused by boundaries, impurities, or U-processes was taken into account to calculate the thermal conductivity. The model is then used to predict the composite thermal conductivity for several composite materials. It shows a pretty good agreement with previous studies in literatures. Based on the model, some discussions about dopant size and volume fraction are also made.

We develop three methods to invert induced polarization (IP) data. The foundation for our algorithms is an assumption that the ultimate effect of chargeability is to alter the effective conductivity when current is applied. This assumption, which was first put forth by Siegel and has been routinely adopted in the literature, permits the IP responses to be numerically modeled by carrying out two forward modelings using a DC resistivity algorithm. The intimate connection between DC and IP data means that inversion of IP data is a two‐step process. First, the DC potentials are inverted to recover a background conductivity. The distribution of chargeability can then be found by using any one of the three following techniques: (1) linearizing the IP data equation and solving a linear inverse problem, (2) manipulating the conductivities obtained after performing two DC resistivity inversions, and (3) solving a nonlinear inverse problem. Our procedure for performing the inversion is to divide the earth into rectangular prisms and to assume that the conductivity σ and chargeability η are constant in each cell. To emulate complicated earth structure we allow many cells, usually far more than there are data. The inverse problem, which has many solutions, is then solved as a problem in optimization theory. A model objective function is designed, and a “model” (either the distribution of σ or η)is sought that minimizes the objective function subject to adequately fitting the data. Generalized subspace methodologies are used to solve both inverse problems, and positivity constraints are included. The IP inversion procedures we design are generic and can be applied to 1-D, 2-D, or 3-D earth models and with any configuration of current and potential electrodes. We illustrate our methods by inverting synthetic DC/IP data taken over a 2-D earth structure and by inverting dipole‐dipole data taken in Quebec.

The inverse problem of determining a multidimensional kernel of an integral term depending on a time variable $t$ and $ (n-1)$-dimensional spatial variable $x'=\left(x_1,\ldots, x_ {n-1}\right)$ in the $n$-dimensional heat equation with a variable coefficient of thermal conductivity is investigated. The direct problem is the Cauchy problem for this equation. The integral term has the time convolution form of kernel and direct problem solution. As additional information for solving the inverse problem, the solution of the direct problem on the hyperplane $x_n = 0$ is given. At the beginning, the properties of the solution to the direct problem are studied. For this, the problem is reduced to solving an integral equation of the second kind of Volterra-type and the method of successive approximations is applied to it. Further the stated inverse problem is reduced to two auxiliary problems, in the second one of them an unknown kernel is included in an additional condition outside integral. Then the auxiliary problems are replaced by an equivalent closed system of Volterra-type integral equations with respect to unknown functions. Applying the method of contraction mappings to this system in the Hölder class of functions, we prove the main result of the article, which is a local existence and uniqueness theorem of the inverse problem solution.
