Apr 12, 2011 at 16:49 comment added j.c. This isn't quite what you're asking about, but percolation of randomly placed rods often goes by the name "stick percolation" in the literature. See for instance this paper of Rahul Roy for some rigorous work math.bme.hu/~balint/oktatas/perkolacio/percolation_papers/… , and this paper of Jiantong Li and Shi-Li Zhang for some numerical work link.aps.org/doi/10.1103/PhysRevE.80.040104

Apr 12, 2011 at 14:09 comment added user9072 How are they placed? (Of course, somehow 'randomly', but I could imagine that at least in the two dimensional case, there are different natural ways how one could think of placing them 'randomly', affecting the result. So it might be good to specifiy this or at least to state that this is not so, or you do not care about this aspect.)
