dc.descriptionWe investigate the steady state of a two-dimensional random resistor network subjected to two competing biased percolations as a function of the bias strength. The properties of the linear and nonlinear regimes are studied by means of Monte Carlo simulations. In constant current conditions, a scaling relation is found between $<R>/<R>_0$ and $I/I_0$, where $<R>$ is the average network resistance, $<R>_0$ the Ohmic resistance and $I_0$ an appropriate threshold value for the onset of nonlinearity. A similar scaling relation is found also for the relative variance of resistance fluctuations. These results are in good agreement with electrical breakdown measurements performed in composite materials.
