25 Jun 2004 | Subject: | Adaptation and Self-Organizing Systems; Cellular Automata and Lattice Gases | nlin.AO nlin.CG | Abstract: | Mean-field coupled lattice maps are used to approximate the physics of driven threshold systems with long range interactions. However, they are incapable of modeling specific features of the dynamic instability responsible for generating avalanches. Here we present a method of simulating specific frictional weakening effects in a mean field slider block model. This provides a means of exploring dynamical effects previously inaccessible to discrete time simulations. This formulation also results in Abelian avalanches, where rupture propagation is independent of the failure sequence. The resulting event size distribution is shown to be generated by the boundary crossings of a stochastic process. This is applied to typical models to explain some commonly observed features. | Source: | arXiv, nlin.AO/0406060 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
