  Bilayer graphene can exhibit deformations such that the two graphene sheets
are locally detached from each other resulting in a structure consisting of
domains with different inter-layer coupling. Here we investigate how the
presence of these domains affect the transport properties of bilayer graphene.
We derive analytical expressions for the transmission probability, and the
corresponding conductance, across walls separating different inter-layer
coupling domain. We find that the transmission can exhibit a valley-dependent
layer asymmetry and that the domain walls have a considerable effect on the
chiral tunnelling properties of the charge carriers. We show that transport
measurements allow one to obtain the strength with which the two layers are
coupled. We performed numerical calculations for systems with two domain walls
and find that the availability of multiple transport channels in bilayer
graphene modifies significantly the conductance dependence on inter-layer
potential asymmetry.
