Property of being continuous. (1) A term used in trouble-shooting electrical circuitry. Continuity implies continuous electrical circuitry through connections. Broken wires, corroded contacts, cold solder joints, poor contacts all can impair continuity. (2) In geology, continuity implies a continuous property or pattern relating to rock type, [[bed|beds]], [[formation|formations]], or sedimentation. (3) In reference to immiscible fluids in rock, continuity might refer to the condition of the nonwetting phase when droplets or [[insular globules]] of the nonwetting phase become connected to form a continuous web throughout the pores of the rock.
