Mixed-wet percolation was introduced recently in the context of two-phase flow in porous media. In this model, the sites of the primal lattice are occupied with a certain probability $p$, and bonds are placed on the dual lattice between two…

We study a process termed "agglomerative percolation" (AP) in two dimensions. Instead of adding sites or bonds at random, in AP randomly chosen clusters are linked to all their neighbors. As a result the growth process involves a diverging…
While classical percolation is well understood, percolation effects in randomly packed or jammed structures are much less explored. Here we investigate both experimentally and theoretically the electrical percolation in a binary composite…

We study the percolative properties of bi-dimensional systems generated by a random sequential adsorption of line-segments on a square lattice. As the segment length grows, the percolation threshold decreases, goes through a minimum and…
Simulations show that when a phase-separated binary AB fluid is driven to flow past chemically patterned substrates in a microchannel, the fluid exhibits unique morphological instabilities. For the pattern studied, these instabilities give…
This paper presents a Monte-Carlo study of percolation in a distorted square lattice, in which, the adjacent sites are not equidistant. Starting with an undistorted lattice, the position of the lattice sites are shifted through a tunable…
We evaluate the percolation threshold values for a realistic model of continuum segregated systems, where random spherical inclusions forbid the percolating objects, modellized by hard-core spherical particles surrounded by penetrable…
