Did lockdowns serve their purpose?
Serena Bradde, Benedetta Cerruti, Jean-Philippe Bouchaud
We show that the dynamics of the number of deaths due to Covid in different countries is to a large extent universal once the origin of time is chosen to be the start of the lockdo…
Yielding and irreversible deformation below the microscale: Surface effects and non-mean-field plastic avalanches
Paolo Moretti, Benedetta Cerruti, M. -Carmen Miguel
Nanoindentation techniques recently developed to measure the mechanical response of crystals under external loading conditions reveal new phenomena upon decreasing sample size belo…
Correlations in avalanche critical points
Benedetta Cerruti, Eduard Vives
Avalanche dynamics and related power law statistics are ubiquitous in nature, arising in phenomena like earthquakes, forest fires and solar flares. Very interestingly, an analogous…
Hysteresis and noise in ferromagnetic materials with parallel domain walls
B. Cerruti, G. Durin, S. Zapperi
We investigate dynamic hysteresis and Barkhausen noise in ferromagnetic materials with a huge number of parallel and rigid Bloch domain walls. Considering a disordered ferromagneti…
Statistics of Microstructure Formation in Martensitic Transitions Studied by a Random-Field Potts Model with Dipolar-like Interactions
B. Cerruti, E. Vives
We have developed a simple model for the study of a cubic to tetragonal martensitic transition, under athermal conditions, in systems with a certain amount of disorder. We have per…
Random Field Potts model with dipolar-like interactions: hysteresis, avalanches and microstructure
Benedetta Cerruti, Eduard Vives
A model for the study of hysteresis and avalanches in a first-order phase transition from a single variant phase to a multivariant phase is presented. The model is based on a modif…
