Abstract
AbstractThe features of network‐formation processes, network‐formation theories and their applications to simple and more complicated systems are briefly reviewed. Network‐formation theories describe changes in structure as a function of an evolution parameter of the system. The existing theories can be grouped into two major categories: (a) off‐space graph models of structure growth (statistical simulation of the growth from units and kinetic simulation) and (b) simulation of the growth in space (percolation). However, models of group (a) can be modified to treat spatial correlations approximately. The applications of the network formation theories to various model systems important for testing network formation and rubber elasticity theories are briefly discussed.
