Abstract
A three-dimensional lattice of the Josephson junctions with a finite self-conductance is employed to model the ceramic superconductors. The nonlinear ac susceptibility and the compensation effect are studied by Monte Carlo simulations in this model. The compensation effect is shown to be due to the existence of the chiral glass phase. We demonstrate, in agreement with experiments, that this effect may be present in the ceramic superconductors which show the paramagnetic Meissner effect.
