Disordered elastic systems and one-dimensional interfaces
We briefly introduce the generic framework of disordered elastic systems (DES), giving a
short 'recipe'of a DES modeling and presenting the quantities of interest in order to probe the …

Interevent correlations from avalanches hiding below the detection threshold
Numerous systems ranging from deformation of materials to earthquakes exhibit bursty
dynamics, which consist of a sequence of events with a broad event size distribution. Very …

Experimental evidence for three universality classes for reaction fronts in disordered flows
Self-sustained reaction fronts in a disordered medium subject to an external flow display self-
affine roughening, pinning, and depinning transitions. We measure spatial and temporal …

Connectivity enhancement due to film flow in porous media
We study the effects of connectivity enhancement due to film flow phenomena on the
drainage of an artificial porous medium and the relative influence of gravity for such effects …

Straight versus spongy: Effect of tortuosity on polymer imbibition into nanoporous matrices assessed by segmentation-free analysis of 3D sample reconstructions
We comparatively analyzed imbibition of polystyrene (PS) into two complementary pore
models having pore diameters of∼ 380 nm and hydroxyl-terminated inorganic-oxidic pore …

Loss of memory of an elastic line on its way to limit cycles
Oscillatory-driven amorphous materials forget their initial configuration and converge to limit
cycles. Here we investigate this memory loss under a nonquasistatic drive in a minimal …

Capillary rise of yield-stress fluids
B Géraud, L Jørgensen, L Petit… - Europhysics …, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
In this letter the capillary rise of yield-stress fluids is investigated experimentally. Contrary to
the case of simple fluids, the final height reached by yield-stress fluids weakly depends on …

Autocatalytic reaction fronts inside a porous medium of glass spheres
We analyze experimentally chemical wave propagation in the disordered flow field of a
porous medium. The reaction fronts travel at a constant velocity that drastically depends on …

Seismiclike organization of avalanches in a driven long-range elastic string as a paradigm of brittle cracks
Crack growth in heterogeneous materials sometimes exhibits crackling dynamics, made of
successive impulselike events with specific scale-invariant time and size organization …

Static fluctuations of a thick one-dimensional interface in the 1+ 1 directed polymer formulation
Experimental realizations of a one-dimensional (1D) interface always exhibit a finite
