In the present work we applied the non equilibrium thermodynamic theory in the analysis of the Dielectric Breakdown (DB) process. As the tree channel front moves, the intense field near the front moves electrons and ions irreversibly in the region beyond the tree channel tips where electromechanical, thermal and chemical effects cause irreversible...

Context 1
... simulation of the electric field effect was done using the classic DBM model in a 2D grid [2]. The used model is a two-dimensional square lattice (Figure 1) in which the opposite sides represent the two electrodes. Breakdown starts at a point of a high local field, and this is usually attributed to electrical conducting inclusions [6]. ...
