Theory and experiments for disordered elastic manifolds, depinning, avalanches, and sandpiles

KJ Wiese - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
Abstract Domain walls in magnets, vortex lattices in superconductors, contact lines at
depinning, and many other systems can be modeled as an elastic system subject to …

Recent advances and open challenges in percolation

N Araújo, P Grassberger, B Kahng, KJ Schrenk… - The European Physical …, 2014 - Springer
Percolation is the paradigm for random connectivity and has been one of the most applied
statistical models. With simple geometrical rules a transition is obtained which is related to …

Statistical models of fracture

MJ Alava, PKVV Nukala, S Zapperi - Advances in Physics, 2006 - Taylor & Francis
Disorder and long-range interactions are two of the key components that make material
failure an interesting playfield for the application of statistical mechanics. The cornerstone in …

[图书][B] Self-organised criticality: theory, models and characterisation

G Pruessner - 2012 - books.google.com
" When Bak, Tang, and Wiesenfeld (1987) coined the term Self-Organised Criticality (SOC),
it was an explanation for an unexpected observation of scale invariance and at the same …

Scale invariance in plastic flow of crystalline solids

M Zaiser - Advances in physics, 2006 - Taylor & Francis
From the traditional viewpoint of continuum plasticity, plastic deformation of crystalline solids
is, at least in the absence of so-called plastic instabilities, envisaged as a smooth and quasi …

Imbibition in disordered media

M Alava, M Dubé, M Rost - Advances in Physics, 2004 - Taylor & Francis
The physics of liquids in porous media gives rise to many interesting phenomena, including
imbibition where a viscous fluid displaces a less viscous one. Here we discuss the …

Feedback mechanisms for self-organization to the edge of a phase transition

V Buendía, S Di Santo, JA Bonachela… - Frontiers in physics, 2020 - frontiersin.org
Scale-free outbursts of activity are commonly observed in physical, geological, and
biological systems. The idea of self-organized criticality (SOC), introduced back in 1987 by …

Pinning of domain walls in thin ferromagnetic films

V Jeudy, R Díaz Pardo, W Savero Torres, S Bustingorry… - Physical Review B, 2018 - APS
We present a quantitative investigation of magnetic domain-wall pinning in thin magnets
with perpendicular anisotropy. A self-consistent description exploiting the universal features …

On the density of shear transformations in amorphous solids

J Lin, A Saade, E Lerner, A Rosso, M Wyart - Europhysics Letters, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the stability of amorphous solids, focussing on the distribution P (x) of the local
stress increase x that would lead to an instability. We argue that this distribution behaves as …

Self-organization without conservation: true or just apparent scale-invariance?

JA Bonachela, MA Munoz - Journal of Statistical Mechanics …, 2009 - iopscience.iop.org
The existence of true scale-invariance in slowly driven models of self-organized criticality
without a conservation law, such as forest-fires or earthquake automata, is scrutinized in this …
