When an electric current flows through a material, heat is generated. The kinetic energy of the electrons in the current flow is partly transformed to heat when the electrons collide with the atomic ions of the material.

When mechanical stress is applied on a metallic or semiconducting object, a change in its electrical resistivity is observed. This phenomenon is called piezoresistivity. The electrical resistivity is a fundamental property of materials related to the structure of atoms within the material that quantifies resistance to the flow of electric current.
