Perforations are created by means of electrical discharges generated by needle-like tungsten electrodes. The objective of perforating a thin porous material is to enhance its air permeability, a critical issue in many industrial applications involving paper, plastics, textiles, etc. Using image analysis techniques and specialized statistical software it is shown that the perforation locations follow, beyond a certain length scale, a homogeneous 2D Poisson distribution.4engPublished under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Atribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 EspañaPorous materialsElectroperforationQuadrat Counts Method (QCM)research articleMaterialeshttps://doi.org/10.1088/1742-6596/301/1/012049open access10120494Journal of physics.
