Universal nonstationary dynamics at the depinning transition.

چکیده
We study the nonstationary dynamics of an elastic interface in a disordered medium at the depinning transition. We compute the two-time response and correlation functions, found to be universal and characterized by two independent critical exponents. We find a good agreement between two-loop functional renormalization group calculations and molecular dynamics simulations for the scaling forms, and for the response aging exponent theta_{R}. We also describe a dynamical dimensional crossover, observed at long times in the relaxation of a finite system. Our results are relevant for the nonsteady driven dynamics of domain walls in ferromagnetic films and contact lines in wetting.

Depinning Transition of a Domain Wall in Ferromagnetic Films
We report first principle numerical study of domain wall (DW) depinning in two-dimensional magnetic film, which is modeled by 2D random-field Ising system with the dipole-dipole interaction. We observe nonconventional activation-type motion of DW and reveal the fractal structure of DW near the depinning transition. We determine scaling functions describing critical dynamics near the transition ...
متن کاملOn the nature of the depinning transition in type-II superconductors
The surface impedance Z(f) of conventional isotropic materials has been carefully measured for frequencies f ranging from 1 kHz to 3MHz, allowing a detailed investigation of the depinning transition. Our results exhibit the irrelevance of classical ideas on the dynamics of vortex pinning. We propose a new picture, where the linear ac response is entirely governed by disordered boundary conditio...
متن کاملInfluence of the temperature on the depinning transition of driven interfaces
We study the dynamics of a driven interface in a twodimensional random-field Ising model close to the depinning transition at small but finite temperatures T using Glauber dynamics. A square lattice is considered with an interface initially in (11)-direction. The drift velocity v is analyzed using finite size scaling at T = 0 and additionally finite temperature scaling close to the depinning tr...
متن کاملDynamic effect of overhangs and islands at the depinning transition in two-dimensional magnets.
With the Monte Carlo methods, we systematically investigate the short-time dynamics of domain-wall motion in the two-dimensional random-field Ising model with a driving field (DRFIM). We accurately determine the depinning transition field and critical exponents. Through two different definitions of the domain interface, we examine the dynamics of overhangs and islands. At the depinning transiti...
متن کاملUniversal distribution of threshold forces at the depinning transition.
We study the distribution of threshold forces at the depinning transition for an elastic system of finite size, driven by an external force in a disordered medium at zero temperature. Using the functional renormalization group technique, we compute the distribution of pinning forces in the quasistatic limit. This distribution is universal up to two parameters, the average critical force and its...
