Percolation
In physics, chemistry and materials science, percolation concerns the movement and filtering of fluids through porous materials. During the last five decades, percolation theory, an extensive mathematical model of percolation, has brought new understanding and techniques to a broad range of topics in physics, materials science, complex networks, epidemiology as well as in geology. In Geology, percolation is filtration of water through soil and permeable rocks. The water flows to groundwater storage Percolation typically exhibits universality. Statistical physics concepts such as scaling theory, renormalization, phase transition, critical phenomena and fractals are useful to characterize percolation properties. Combinatorics is commonly employed to study percolation thresholds. Applications / specific examples include: ⁕coffee percolation, where the solvent is water, the permeable substance is the coffee grounds, and the soluble constituents are the chemical compounds that give coffee its color, taste, and aroma ⁕movement of weathered material down on a slope under the earth's surface
