A semi-analytical model for percolation problems, called the Dynamical Network Model, is developed. Because of its semi-analytic nature, the model is more efficient than the existing numerical techniques especially for three dimensional problems and, thus, can be used to a wide range of percolation-like problems in performance assessment of radioactive waste disposal.
