A printed circuit board needs structure and shape. It also needs a platform or canvas to hold all of its other components. This is the job of the substrate. The characteristics of the substrate will affect how the PCB [printed circuit board] performs. For example, a rigid substrate may add strength and durability to the PCB. A flexible substrate allows for more design options. 2, record 1, English, - substrate

Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Analogue models in hydrology most frequently simulate the flow of water in a channel (or through a porous medium) by the flow of electric current through a circuit composed of resistors and capacitors. 1, record 2, English, - analog%20model
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 OBS
... simulate a situation in a different medium from the prototype. Electrical, pneumatic or hydraulic analogues are employed. Often used in training, but not suitable for decision-making owing to the slow response, high cost of construction, and difficulty of changing the model fundamentally. 4, record 2, English, - analog%20model
