No Significant Effect of Coulomb Stress on the Gutenberg-Richter Law after the Landers Earthquake
Víctor Navas-Portella, Abigail Jiménez, Álvaro Corral
Coulomb-stress theory has been used for years in seismology to understand how earthquakes trigger each other. Whenever an earthquake occurs, the stress field changes, and places wi…
Increasing power-law range in avalanche amplitude and energy distributions
Víctor Navas-Portella, Isabel Serra, Álvaro Corral +1
Power-law type probability density functions spanning several orders of magnitude are found for different avalanche properties. We propose a methodology to overcome empirical const…
Avalanches and force drops in displacement-driven compression of porous glasses
Víctor Navas-Portella, Álvaro Corral, Eduard Vives
Similarities between force-driven compression experiments of porous materials and earthquakes have been recently proposed. In this manuscript, we measure the acoustic emission duri…
Influence of the aspect ratio and boundary conditions on universal finite size scaling functions in the athermal metastable 2d Random Field Ising Model
Víctor Navas-Portella, Eduard Vives
This work studies universal finite size scaling functions for the number of 1d spanning avalanches in a two-dimensional disordered system with boundary conditions of different natu…
