The effect of thresholding on temporal avalanche statistics
Lasse Laurson, Xavier Illa, Mikko J. Alava
We discuss intermittent time series consisting of discrete bursts or avalanches separated by waiting or silent times. The short time correlations can be understood to follow from t…
Anomalous Roughness of Fracture Surfaces in 2D Fuse Models
Phani K. V. V. Nukala, Stefano Zapperi, Mikko Alava +1
We study anomalous scaling and multiscaling of two-dimensional crack profiles in the random fuse model using both periodic and open boundary conditions. Our large scale and extensi…
Crack Roughness in the 2D Random Threshold Beam Model
Phani K. V. V. Nukala, Stefano Zapperi, Mikko Alava +1
We study the scaling of two-dimensional crack roughness using large scale beam lattice systems. Our results indicate that the crack roughness obtained using beam lattice systems do…
Comment on ``Self-organized criticality and absorbing states: Lessons from the Ising model"
Mikko J. Alava, Lasse Laurson, Alessandro Vespignani +1
According to Pruessner and Peters [Phys. Rev. E {\bf 73}, 025106(R) (2006)], the finite size scaling exponents of the order parameter in sandpile models depend on the tuning of dri…
Driven particle in a cloud of mobile impurities
Lasse Laurson, Mikko J. Alava
The dynamics of a test particle interacting with diffusing impurities in one dimension is investigated analytically and numerically. In the absence of an applied external force, th…
