percolation rate
1Percolation test — A percolation test (from percolation , colloquially called a perc test) is a test to determine the absorption rate of soil for a septic drain field or leach field . The results of a percolation test are required to properly design a septic system …
2Directed percolation — In statistical physics Directed Percolation (DP) refers to a class of models that mimic filtering of fluids through porous materials along a given direction. Varying the microscopic connectivity of the pores, these models display a phase… …
