Log-periodic Oscillations for Biased Diffusion in 3D Random Lattices

Dietrich Stauffer, Didier Sornette

Random walks with a fixed bias direction on randomly diluted cubic lattices far above the percolation threshold exhibit log-periodic oscillations in the effective exponent versus t…

Energy Dissipation and Trapping of Particles Moving on a Rough Surface

C. Henrique, M. A. Aguirre, A. Calvo +4

We report an experimental, numerical and theoretical study of the motion of a ball on a rough inclined surface. The control parameters are , the diameter of the ball, , the i…

Fracture in Three-Dimensional Fuse Networks

G. George Batrouni, Alex Hansen

We report on large scale numerical simulations of fracture surfaces using random fuse networks for two very different disorders. There are some properties and exponents that are di…

Scaling with respect to disorder in time-to-failure

D. Sornette, J. V. Andersen

We revisit a simple dynamical model of rupture in random media with long-range elasticity to test whether rupture can be seen as a first-order or a critical transition. We find a c…

A two-dimensional network simulator for two-phase flow in porous media

Eyvind Aker, Knut Jorgen Maloy, Alex Hansen +1

We investigate a two-dimensional network simulator capable of modeling different time dependencies in two-phase drainage displacements. In particular, we focus on the temporal evol…

Extreme deviations and applications

U. Frisch, D. Sornette

Stretched exponential probability density functions (pdf), having the form of the exponential of minus a fractional power of the argument, are commonly found in turbulence and othe…

Self-organized criticality in stick-slip models with periodic boundaries

Kwan-tai Leung, Joergen Vitting Andersen, Didier Sornette

A spring-block model governed by threshold dynamics and driven by temporally increasing spring constants is investigated. Due to its novel multiplicative driving, criticality occur…

Large financial crashes

Didier Sornette, Anders Johansen

We propose that large stock market crashes are analogous to critical points studied in statistical physics with log-periodic correction to scaling. We extend our previous renormali…
