Percolation

Updated: April 15, 2008

Percolation depends on the topological constraints used. For example, the percolation threshold is dependent on the manner of connectivity of the elements in a system. The percolation threshold was estimated for a two-dimensional lattice with regions of disallowed occupancy.

Here L_B is the lattice edge size of the disallowed region.
