FORCE OSCILLATIONS DISTORT AVALANCHE SHAPES

Force oscillations distort avalanche shapes

Contradictory scaling behavior in experiments testing the principle of universality may be due to external oscillations.Thus, the effect of damped oscillatory external forces on slip avalanches in slowly deformed solids is simulated using a mean-field model.Akin to a resonance effect, oscillatory driving forces change the dynamics of Lounge Chairs
