In this work we investigate the distribution of shortest paths in percolation systems at the percolation threshhold in two dimensions (2D). We study paths from one given point to multiple other points. In oil recovery terminology, the given single point can be mapped to an injection well...

Using Monte-Carlo simulations, we find the continuum percolation threshold of a three-dimensional mixture of spheres of two different sizes. We fix the value of r, the ratio of the volume of the smaller sphere to the volume of the larger sphere, and determine the percolation threshold for...

We study the continuum percolation in systems composed of overlapping objects of two different sizes. We show that when treated as a function of the volumetric fraction f as opposed to the concentration x, the percolation threshold exhibits the symmetry ηc(f,r)=ηc(1−f,r) where r is the ratio...

In this paper, we apply scaling laws from percolation theory to the problem of estimating the time for a fluid injected into an oilfield to breakthrough into a production well. The main contribution is to show that when these previously published results are used on realistic data they are in...
