Percolation theory
freebase
| In mathematics, percolation theory describes the behavior of connected clusters in a random graph. The applications of percolation theory to materials science and other domains are discussed in the article percolation. A representative question (and the source of the name) is as follows. Assume we have some porous material and we pour some liquid on top. Will the liquid be able to make its way... Read enhanced Wikipedia article |

Percolation
In physics, chemistry and materials science, percolation concerns the movement and filtering of fluids through porous materials. ... During the last three decades, percolation theory, an extensive mathematical model of percolation, has brought new understanding and techniques to a broad range of topics in physics, materials science as well as geography. -

Percolation threshold
Percolation threshold is a mathematical term related to percolation theory, which is the formation of long-range connectivity in random systems. In engineering and coffee making, percolation is the slow flow of fluids through porous media, but in the mathematics and physics worlds it generally refers to simplified lattice models of random systems, and the nature of the connectivity in them. -

Effective medium approximations
Effective medium approximations or effective medium theory (sometimes abbreviated as EMA or EMT) are physical models that describe the macroscopic properties of a medium based on the properties and the relative fractions of its components. ... It is 33% in the EMA, in three dimensions, far from the 16% expected from percolation theory and observed in experiments. -

John Hammersley
John Michael Hammersley (21 March 1920-2 May 2004) was a British mathematician best-known for his foundational work in the theory of self-avoiding walks and percolation theory. He was born in Helensburgh in Dunbartonshire, and educated at Sedbergh School.
