Abstract
A three-dimensional lattice of the Josephson junctions with a finite self-conductance is employed to model ceramic superconductors. Using Monte Carlo simulations it is shown that the aging disappears in the strong screening limit. In the weeak screening regime aging is present even at low temperatures. For intermediate values of the self-inductance aging occurs at intermediate temperatures interval but is suppressed entirely at high and low temperatures. Our results are in good agreement with experiments.
