Statistical properties of fractures in damaged materials
A. Gabrielli, R. Cafiero, G. Caldarelli
We introduce a model for the dynamics of mud cracking in the limit of of extremely thin layers. In this model the growth of fracture proceeds by selecting the part of the material…
Generalized Dielectric Breakdown Model
R. Cafiero, A. Gabrielli, M. Marsili +2
We propose a generalized version of the Dielectric Breakdown Model (DBM) for generic breakdown processes. It interpolates between the standard DBM and its analog with quenched diso…
Phase separation in systems with absorbing states
M. A. Munoz, U. Marini Bettolo Marconi, R. Cafiero
We study the problem of phase separation in systems with a positive definite order parameter, and in particular, in systems with absorbing states. Owing to the presence of a single…
Study of the disordered one-dimensional contact process
Raffaele Cafiero, Andrea Gabrielli, Miguel A. Muñoz
New theoretical and numerical analysis of the one-dimensional contact process with quenched disorder are presented. We derive new scaling relations, different from their counterpar…
