Activation and Avalanche Length Scales in the Finite-Temperature Creep of an Elastic Interface

Giovanni Russo, Ezequiel E. Ferrero, Alejandro B. Kolton +2

We investigate the creep dynamics of a driven elastic line at finite temperature, well below the depinning threshold. We show that creep is governed by two distinct length scales.…

Thermal activation drives a finite-size crossover from scale-free to runaway avalanches in amorphous solids

Gieberth Rodriguez-Lopez, Ezequiel E. Ferrero

We investigate thermal avalanche dynamics in amorphous solids using elastoplastic models with local activation rules and no external driving. Dynamical heterogeneities, quantified…

Soil creep facilitated by cyclic variations of environmental conditions

Ezequiel E. Ferrero, Eduardo A. Jagla

Sloped terrains tend to creep downward over time, even when their slope is below the nominal angle of repose. This behavior can result from periodic variations in environmental con…

Consensus formation and relative stimulus perception in quality-sensitive, interdependent agent systems

David March-Pons, Ezequiel E. Ferrero, M. Carmen Miguel

We perform a comprehensive analysis of a collective decision-making model inspired by honeybee behavior. This model integrates individual exploration for option discovery and socia…

Honeybee-like collective decision making in a kilobot swarm

David March, Julia Múgica, Ezequiel E. Ferrero +1

Drawing inspiration from honeybee swarms' nest-site selection process, we assess the ability of a kilobot robot swarm to replicate this captivating example of collective decision-m…

Depinning free of the elastic approximation

Alejandro B. Kolton, Ezequiel E. Ferrero, Alberto Rosso

We model the isotropic depinning transition of a domain-wall using a two dimensional Ginzburg-Landau scalar field instead of a directed elastic string in a random media. An exact a…
