Good flow splitting design is dependent on the accurate prediction of the pressure drop caused by the various bends, branches and straight sections of pipe. This can be achieved by employing the above branch model(s), proven for the particular material and application, coupled with the accurate pipeline test-design procedure described in Sec. 2.4 of this chapter. 

Pore size has been evaluated through the DFT method, using the NLDFT adsorption branch model for cylindrical pore [10],... 

The composite model is a combination of the monoparametric v model with the simple branching model. This method has proven useful in modelling amino acid, peptide and protein properties49. It is an improvement over the simple branching model and requires only one additional parameter.

Theoretical and experimental treatments of gels go hand-in-hand. The former are covered first because they will help us understand gel point and other concepts. Two main theories have been used to interpret results of experimental studies on gels the classical theory based on branching models developed developed by Floiy and Stockmayer, and the percolation model credited to de Gennes. Gelation theories predict a critical point at which an infinite cluster first appears. As with other critical points, the sol-gel transition can be in general characterized in terms of a set of generally applicable (universal) critical exponents.
