A thermodynamical fiber bundle model for the fracture of disordered materials
Alessandro Virgilii, Alberto Petri, Silvio R. Salinas
We investigate a disordered version of a thermodynamic fiber bundle model proposed by Selinger, Wang, Gelbart, and Ben-Shaul a few years ago. For simple forms of disorder, the mode…

Critical behavior of ferromagnetic spin models with aperiodic exchange interactions
T. A. S. Haddad, S. T. R. Pinho, S. R. Salinas
We review recent investigations of the critical behavior of ferromagnetic -state Potts models on a class of hierarchical lattices, with exchange interactions according to some d…
