Transition from stick-slip to smooth sliding: an earthquakelike model.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a detailed study of an earthquakelike model that exhibits a "transition" from stick-slip motion to smooth sliding at a velocity of the order of those observed in experiments. This contrasts with the many previous microscopic models in which the transition velocity is many orders of magnitude too large. The results show that experimentally observed smooth sliding at the macroscopic scale must correspond to microscopic-scale stick-slip motion.

Modeling friction on a mesoscale: master equation for the earthquakelike model.
The earthquakelike model with a continuous distribution of static thresholds is used to describe the properties of solid friction. The evolution of the model is reduced to a master equation which can be solved analytically. This approach naturally describes stick-slip and smooth-sliding regimes of tribological systems within a framework which separates the calculation of the friction force from...
متن کاملStick-Slip Motion and Phase Transition in a Block-Spring System
We study numerically stick slip motions in a model of blocks and springs being pulled slowly. The sliding friction is assumed to change dynamically with a state variable. The transition from steady sliding to stick-slip is subcritical in a single block and spring system. However, we find that the transition is continuous in a long chain of blocks and springs. The size distribution of stick-slip...
متن کاملTransition from Uniform Motion to Stick-Slip in the Rice-Ruina Model of One and Two Blocks
We analyze the Rice-Ruina state and rate dependent friction model. The system consists of one or two blocks driven by springs with constant velocity on a dry, rough surface. Our discussion is limited to the creep-like motion, when the driving velocity is small. Two regimes of motion are observed: stick-slip and steady sliding. The stability of the steady sliding depends on the model parameters....

When some granular material contained into a silo is pushed upwards with a piston, an irregular stick-slip motion of the system of grains is observed. We show how one can adapt the 'Scalar Arching Model' (sam) – proposed as a model for giant stress fluctuations in silos – in order to describe this stick-slip phenomenon. As a function of the sensitivity of the system to mechanical noise, the sys...
