It is an honour and pleasure to write a foreword to this useful and
interesting book. Authors are very well known researchers who
pioneered percolation modelling of transport in porous media in
Russia from the early 80-th till nowadays. The main scope of the
work presented in the book was developed when bright papers by A.
Aharony, H.T. Davis, F.A.L. Dullien, A.A. Heiba, R.G. Larson, R.
Lenormand, M.Sahimi, L.E. Scriven, D. Stauffer, M. Yanuka,
Y.C.Yortsos were not available at the "other" side of the Iron
Curtain. Nowadays hundreds of works and papers with the
"percolation" keywords ap pear in petroleum and related applied
research areas. The book will take a re markable place in the
"petroleum percolation" bibliography. There are two important
features of novelty in the monograph presented. First of all the
authors developed a generalization of percolation clusters theory
for grids with varying conductivity. Technique of representation of
an infinite cluster as an hierarchial set of trees (so called
r-chain model) allows to present conductivity of a stochastic grid
in a closed form of explicit formulae. This method differs from
those known in the West, such as effective media theory, solutions
for the Bethe-lattice, etc. It has his own area of successful appli
cations."
