Scaling of cluster mass between two lines in 3d percolation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the cluster mass distribution between two lines of arbitrary orientations and lengths in porous media in three dimensions, and model the porous media by bond percolation at the percolation threshold pc. We observe that for many geometrical con.gurations the mass probability distribution presents power law behavior. We determine how the characteristic mass of the distribution scales with such geometrical parameters as the line length, w, the minimal distance between lines, r, and the angle between the lines, . The fractal dimensions of the cluster mass are independent of w; r, and . The slope of the power-law regime of the cluster mass is una1ected by changes in these three variables; however the characteristic mass of the cluster depends upon . We propose new scaling functions that reproduce the dependence of the characteristic mass found in the simulations. c © 2002 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.

THE SCALING LAW FOR THE DISCRETE KINETIC GROWTH PERCOLATION MODEL
The Scaling Law for the Discrete Kinetic Growth Percolation Model The critical exponent of the total number of finite clusters α is calculated directly without using scaling hypothesis both below and above the percolation threshold pc based on a kinetic growth percolation model in two and three dimensions. Simultaneously, we can calculate other critical exponents β and γ, and show that the scal...
متن کاملFinite-Size Scaling in Two-dimensional Continuum Percolation Models
We test the universal finite-size scaling of the cluster mass order parameter in two-dimensional (2D) isotropic and directed continuum percolation models below the percolation threshold by computer simulations. We found that the simulation data in the 2D continuum models obey the same scaling expression of massM to sample size L as generally accepted for isotropic lattice problems, but with a p...
متن کاملCluster, Backbone and Elastic Backbone Structures of the Multiple Invasion Percolation
We study the cluster, the backbone and the elastic backbone structures of the multiple invasion percolation for both the perimeter and the optimized versions. We investigate the behavior of the mass, the number of red sites (i. e., sites through which all the current passes) and loops of those structures. Their corresponding scaling exponents are also estimated. By construction, the mass of the...
متن کاملElastic critical behaviour in a 3d model for polymer gels
The elastic response in polymeric gels is studied by means of a percolation dynamic model. By numerical simulations the fluctuations in the gyration radius and in the center of mass motion of the percolating cluster are determined. Their scaling behaviour at the gelation threshold gives a critical exponent for the elastic modulus f ∼ 2.5± 0.1 in agreement with the prediction f = dν. PACS: 05.20...
متن کاملVortex critical behavior at the de - confinement phase transition
The de-confinement phase transition in SU(2) Yang-Mills theory is revisited in the vortex picture. Defining the world sheets of the confining vortices by maximal center projection, the percolation properties of the vortex lines in the hypercube consisting of the time axis and two spatial axis are studied. Using the percolation cumulant, the temperature for the percolation transition is seen to ...
