Popis: | Recently, the effective medium approach using 2x2 basic cluster of model lattice sites to predict the conductivity of interacting droplets has been presented by Hattori et al. To make a step aside from pure applications, we have studied earlier a multi-scale percolation, employing any kxk basic cluster for non-interacting particles. Here, with interactions included, we examine in what way they alter the percolation threshold for any cluster case. We found that at a fixed length scale k the interaction reduces the range of shifts of the percolation threshold. To determine the critical concentrations, the simplified model is used. It diminishes the number of local conductivities into two main ones. In the presence of a dominance of the repulsive interaction over the thermal energy, the exact percolation thresholds at scales k=2 and 3 can be obtained from analytical formulas. Furthermore, by a simple reasoning, we obtain the limiting threshold formula for odd k. When k>>1, the odd-even difference becomes negligible. Hence, the 0.75 is the highest possible value of the threshold. 13 pages with 6 figures |
