Fractals and percolation in porous media and flows?

We review a body of recent work, related to the research interests of our group, on the channel structure of disordered porous media, or fractured systems, where concepts of percolation and fractal geometry have proved useful in characterizing, or explaining, features of the transport properties of...

Description
Summary:We review a body of recent work, related to the research interests of our group, on the channel structure of disordered porous media, or fractured systems, where concepts of percolation and fractal geometry have proved useful in characterizing, or explaining, features of the transport properties of single and multiphase flow, or of the “dynamics” of invasion percolation.
