چکیده

We obtain an exact solution for the motion of a particle driven by a spring in a Brownian random-force landscape, the Alessandro-Beatrice-Bertotti-Montorsi (ABBM) model. Many experiments on quasistatic driving of elastic interfaces (Barkhausen noise in magnets, earthquake statistics, shear dynamics of granular matter) exhibit the same universal behavior as this model. It also appears as a limit in the field theory of elastic manifolds. Here we discuss predictions of the ABBM model for monotonous, but otherwise arbitrary, time-dependent driving. Our main result is an explicit formula for the generating functional of particle velocities and positions. We apply this to derive the particle-velocity distribution following a quench in the driving velocity. We also obtain the joint avalanche size and duration distribution and the mean avalanche shape following a jump in the position of the confining spring. Such nonstationary driving is easy to realize in experiments, and provides a way to test the ABBM model beyond the stationary, quasistatic regime. We study extensions to two elastically coupled layers, and to an elastic interface of internal dimension d, in the Brownian force landscape. The effective action of the field theory is equal to the action, up to one-loop corrections obtained exactly from a functional determinant. This provides a connection to renormalization-group methods.

Phenomenology of Barkhausen Effect in Soft Ferromagnetic Materials

We present results on Barkhausen noise power spectrum in polycrystalli.ne 3 % SiFe, measured in the central part of the hysteresis loop as a function of permeability /I and magnetization rate I , in the range 2.6 x lo3 5 p / po 5 5.5 x lo4, 1.5 x ~o-~Ts ' 5 I 5 5 TS-'. The parameters describing the spectrum shape exhibit definite power law dependences on both /I and I .

Driven particle in a random landscape: disorder correlator, avalanche distribution, and extreme value statistics of records.

We review how the renormalized force correlator Delta(micro) , the function computed in the functional renormalization-group (RG) field theory, can be measured directly in numerics and experiments on the dynamics of elastic manifolds in the presence of pinning disorder. We show how this function can be computed analytically for a particle dragged through a one-dimensional random-force landscape...

Avalanche dynamics of elastic interfaces.

Slowly driven elastic interfaces, such as domain walls in dirty magnets, contact lines wetting a nonhomogeneous substrate, or cracks in brittle disordered material proceed via intermittent motion, called avalanches. Here we develop a field-theoretic treatment to calculate, from first principles, the space-time statistics of instantaneous velocities within an avalanche. For elastic interfaces at...
