Bd. Hughes et M. Sahimi, DIFFUSION IN DISORDERED-SYSTEMS WITH MULTIPLE FAMILIES OF TRANSPORT PATHS, Physical review letters, 70(17), 1993, pp. 2581-2584
We propose a new model for transport in disordered solids and rocks wh
ich contain N distinct families of transport paths (N greater-than-or-
equal-to 2), and study the behavior of its effective transport propert
ies. The model is relevant to transport in metals, polycrystals, porou
s catalysts, coalbed methane reservoirs, and geological systems with f
ractures and pores.
