Dynamic critical behavior of failure and plastic deformation in the random fiber bundle model
The random fiber bundle (RFB) model, with the strength of the fibers
distributed uniformly within a finite interval, is studied under the assumption
of global load sharing among all unbroken fibers of the bundle. At any fixed
value of the applied stress (load per fiber initially present in the bundle),
the fraction of fibers that remain unbroken at successive time steps is shown
to follow simple recurrence relations. The model is found to have stable fixed
point for applied stress in the range 0 and 1; beyond which total failure of
the bundle takes place discontinuously. The dynamic critical behavior near this
failure point has been studied for this model analysing the recurrence
relations. We also investigated the finite size scaling behavior. At the
critical point one finds strict power law decay (with time t) of the fraction
of unbroken fibers. The avalanche size distribution for this mean-field
dynamics of failure has been studied. The elastic response of the RFB model has
also been studied analytically for a specific probability distribution of fiber
strengths, where the bundle shows plastic behavior before complete failure,
following an initial linear response.Comment: 13 pages, 5 figures, extensively revised and accepted for publication

Multiplicação de tubérculos -semente na propriedade: : uma opção para os pequenos produtores
The present research aimed to evaluate the multiplication of seed potatoes from basic seeds at grower farm to increase yield in commercial potato crops. The potato cultivars Epagri 361-Catucha, Baronesa, Elvira, Monalisa and Macaca were cultivated in participatory research, during the growing seasons of 1999, 2000 and 2001 in southerncoast of Santa Catarina State, Brazil. It was evaluated the occurrence of viral diseases, multiplication tuber index, yield and size of seed potatoes. It was also evaluated the quality and yield of the tubers for fresh consumption. The results showed the viability of multiplication of seed potatoes by growers to use them in commercial crops. It is possible to increase the average productivity of the commercial potato crops in the region using this simple technique.The incidence of viral diseases was different among cultivars particularly for the Y virus.Com o objetivo de verificar a viabilidade técnica da multiplicação própria de tubérculos-semente de diversas cultivares, a partir de batata-semente básica, conduziram-se nove unidades de observação na região doLitoral Sul Catarinense, nos plantios de inverno de 1999 e 2000. No plantio de outono de 2001, conduziram-se mais quatro unidades de observação com o objetivo de avaliar a produção de batata-consumo das cultivares Epagri 361-Catucha, Baronesa, Elvira, Monalisa e Macaca, utilizando-se "semente" multiplicada no plantio anterior. Avaliaram-se a ocorrência de viroses, a taxa de multiplicação, o rendimento total e os tipos de tubérculos-semente produzidos em propriedades de agricultores. Na produção de batata-consumo, avaliaram-se os rendimentos total e comercial de tubérculos. Pelos resultados obtidos, constatou-se que é viável a multiplicação de tubérculos-semente, visando aprodução de batata-consumo, no plantio seguinte. Com o uso de "semente" produzida a partir de batata-semente básica, associado à cultivar adaptada, é possível elevar o rendimento médio das cultivares quanto à suscetibilidade aovírus Y e do enrolamento. O vírus Y é, atualmente, a maior causa da degenerescência da batata-semente na região do Litoral Sul Catarinense
Precursors of catastrophe in the BTW, Manna and random fiber bundle models of failure
We have studied precursors of the global failure in some self-organised
critical models of sand-pile (in BTW and Manna models) and in the random fiber
bundle model (RFB). In both BTW and Manna model, as one adds a small but fixed
number of sand grains (heights) to any central site of the stable pile, the
local dynamics starts and continues for an average relaxation time (\tau) and
an average number of topplings (\Delta) spread over a radial distance (\xi). We
find that these quantities all depend on the average height (h_{av}) of the
pile and they all diverge as (h_{av}) approaches the critical height (h_{c})
from below: (\Delta) (\sim (h_{c}-h_{av}))(^{-\delta}), (\tau \sim
(h_{c}-h_{av})^{-\gamma}) and (\xi) (\sim) ((h_{c}-h_{av})^{-\nu}). Numerically
we find (\delta \simeq 2.0), (\gamma \simeq 1.2) and (\nu \simeq 1.0) for both
BTW and Manna model in two dimensions. In the strained RFB model we find that
the breakdown susceptibility (\chi) (giving the differential increment of the
number of broken fibers due to increase in external load) and the relaxation
time (\tau), both diverge as the applied load or stress (\sigma) approaches the
network failure threshold (\sigma_{c}) from below: (\chi) (\sim) ((\sigma_{c})
(-)(\sigma)^{-1/2}) and (\tau) (\sim) ((\sigma_{c}) (-)(\sigma)^{-1/2}). These
self-organised dynamical models of failure therefore show some definite
precursors with robust power laws long before the failure point. Such
well-characterised precursors should help predicting the global failure point
of the systems in advance.Comment: 13 pages, 9 figures (eps
Failure due to fatigue in fiber bundles and solids
We consider first a homogeneous fiber bundle model where all the fibers have
got the same stress threshold beyond which all fail simultaneously in absence
of noise. At finite noise, the bundle acquires a fatigue behavior due to the
noise-induced failure probability at any stress. We solve this dynamics of
failure analytically and show that the average failure time of the bundle
decreases exponentially as the stress increases. We also determine the
avalanche size distribution during such failure and find a power law decay. We
compare this fatigue behavior with that obtained phenomenologically for the
nucleation of Griffith cracks. Next we study numerically the fatigue behavior
of random fiber bundles having simple distributions of individual fiber
strengths, at stress less than the bundle's strength (beyond which it fails
instantly). The average failure time is again seen to decrease exponentially as
the stress increases and the avalanche size distribution shows similar power
law decay. These results are also in broad agreement with experimental
observations on fatigue in solids. We believe, these observations regarding the
failure time are useful for quantum breakdown phenomena in disordered systems.Comment: 13 pages, 4 figures, figures added and the text is revise
Failure regime in (1+1) dimensions in fibrous materials
In this paper, we introduce a model for fracture in fibrous materials that
takes into account the rupture height of the fibers, in contrast with previous
models. Thus, we obtain the profile of the fracture and calculate its
roughness, defined as the variance around the mean height. We investigate the
relationship between the fracture roughness and the fracture toughness.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures.eps, Revte
