Local dynamics of a randomly pinned crack front during creep and forced propagation: An experimental study
Ken Tore Tallakstad, Renaud Toussaint, Stéphane Santucci +2
We have studied the propagation of a crack front along the heterogeneous weak plane of a transparent poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) block using two different loading conditions:…
Avalanche prediction in Self-organized systems
O. Ramos, E. Altshuler, K. J. Maloy
It is a common belief that power-law distributed avalanches are inherently unpredictable. This idea affects phenomena as diverse as evolution, earthquakes, superconducting vortices…
Growth activity during fingering in a porous Hele Shaw cell
Grunde Lovoll, Yves Meheust, Renaud Toussaint +2
We present in this paper an experimental study of the invasion activity during unstable drainage in a 2D random porous medium, when the (wetting) displaced fluid has a high viscosi…
