Abstract: In this paper we identify the geometric structures that restrict transport and mixing in perturbations of integrable volume-preserving systems with nonzero net flux. Unlike KAM tori, these objects cannot be continued to the tori present in the integrable system but are generated by resonance and have a contractible direction. We introduce a remarkably simple algorithm to analyze the behavior of these maps and obtain quantitative properties of the tori. In particular, we present assertions regarding the distribution of the escape times of the unbounded orbits, the abundance of tori, and the size of the resonant regions.
