1. A method for determining anisotropic conductive characteristics of a specimen, comprising:
applying a first current to a specimen to deposit a material on the specimen, the specimen including a first composite material; determining a quantity of the material deposited at a first set of multiple locations on an edge of the specimen, wherein determining the quantity at a particular location of the first set of multiple locations includes measuring a height of a layer of the material deposited at the particular location; determining anisotropic conductive characteristics of the specimen based on the quantity of the material deposited at the first set of multiple locations on the specimen, wherein determining the conductive characteristics includes estimating a current density distribution of a portion of the specimen responsive to the first current; applying a second current to a second specimen to deposit the material on the second specimen, wherein the second specimen includes a second composite material, and wherein the second composite material is different from the first composite material; determining a second quantity of the material deposited at a second set of multiple locations of the second specimen; performing a comparison of the anisotropic conductive characteristics of the specimen and second anisotropic conductive characteristics of the second specimen; and based on the anisotropic conductive characteristics of the specimen, predicting performance of a component formed of the first composite material and the second composite material. |
