Fluctuations in fluid invasion into disordered media
Martin Rost, Lasse Laurson, Martin Dube +1
Interfaces moving in a disordered medium exhibit stochastic velocity fluctuations obeying universal scaling relations related to the presence or absence of conservation laws. For f…
noise and avalanche scaling in plastic deformation
Lasse Laurson, Mikko Alava
We study the intermittency and noise of dislocation systems undergoing shear deformation. Simulations of a simple two-dimensional discrete dislocation dynamics model indicate that…
Statistical Models of Fracture
Mikko J. Alava, Phani K. V. V. Nukala, Stefano Zapperi
Disorder and long-range interactions are two of the key components that make material failure an interesting playfield for the application of statistical mechanics. The cornerstone…
Morphology of two dimensional fracture surface
Mikko J. Alava, Phani K. V. V. Nukala, Stefano Zapperi
We consider the morphology of two dimensional cracks observed in experimental results obtained from paper samples and compare these results with the numerical simulations of the ra…
Crackling noise in paper peeling
L. I. Salminen, J. M. Pulakka, J. Rosti +2
Acoustic emission or crackling noise is measured from an experiment on splitting or peeling of paper. The energy of the events follows a power-law, with an exponent $β\sim 1.8\pm 0…
