Hierarchical Cont-Bouchaud Model

Quenched localisation in the Bouchaud trap model with regularly varying traps

This article describes the quenched localisation behaviour of the Bouchaud trap model on the integers with regularly varying traps. In particular, it establishes that for almost every trapping landscape there exist arbitrarily large times at which the system is highly localised on one site, and also arbitrarily large times at which the system is completely delocalised. §

Some Considerations about the Bouchaud-Cates-Ravi-Edwards model for Granular Flow

In this paper we discuss some features of the BCRE model. We show that this model can be understood as a mapping from a two-dimensional to a one-dimensional problem, if some conditions are satisfied. We propose some modifications that (a) guarantee mass conservation in the model (what is not assured in its original form) and (b) correct undesired behaviors that appear when there are irregularit...

Two-site localisation in the Bouchaud trap model with slowly varying traps

We consider the Bouchaud trap model on the integers in the case that the trap distribution has a slowly varying tail at infinity. We prove that the model eventually localises on exactly two sites with overwhelming probability. This is a stronger form of localisation than has previously been established in the literature for the Bouchaud trap model on the integers in the case of regularly varyin...

The Reliable Hierarchical Location-allocation Model under Heterogeneous Probabilistic Disruptions

This paper presents a novel reliable hierarchical location-allocation model where facilities are subject to the risk of disruptions. Based on the relationship between various levels of system, a multi-level multi-flow hierarchy is considered. The heterogeneous probabilistic disruptions are investigated in which the constructed facilities have different site-dependent and independent failure rat...
