Disordered elastic systems and one-dimensional interfaces

TLDR
In this paper, the authors introduce the generic framework of disordered elastic systems (DES), giving a short "recipe" of a DES modeling and presenting the quantities of interest in order to probe the static and dynamical disorder-induced properties of such systems.
Abstract
We briefly introduce the generic framework of disordered elastic systems (DES), giving a short ‘recipe’ of a DES modeling and presenting the quantities of interest in order to probe the static and dynamical disorder-induced properties of such systems. We then focus on a particular low-dimensional DES, namely the one-dimensional interface in short-ranged elasticity and short-ranged quenched disorder. Illustrating different elements given in the introductory sections, we discuss specifically the consequences of the interplay between a finite temperature T > 0 and a finite interface width ξ > 0 on the static geometrical fluctuations at different lengthscales, and the implications on the quasistatic dynamics.

Deformation and flow of amorphous solids: Insights from elastoplastic models

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the physical insight provided by elastoplastic models into practical issues such as strain localization, creep and steady-state rheology, but also the fundamental questions that they address with respect to criticality at the yielding point and the statistics of avalanches of plastic events.

The Peierls instability and charge density wave in one-dimensional electronic conductors

TL;DR: In this paper, structural and electronic features associated with the concomitant Peierls-charge density wave (CDW) instabilities observed in most one-dimensional (1D) inorganic and organic electronic conductors are reviewed.

Nanoscale studies of ferroelectric domain walls as pinned elastic interfaces

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on piezoresponse force microscopy measurements of individual ferroelectric domain walls, allowing their static configuration and dynamic response to be accessed with nanoscale resolution over multiple orders of length scale and velocity.

A model for contact angle hysteresis

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the behavior of a liquid partially wetting a solid surface, when the contact angle at equilibrium θ 0 is small, but finite, and show that there may exist two stable positions for the line, obtained by a simple graphic construction.

Origins of scale invariance in growth processes

TL;DR: In this paper, a review describes recent progress in the understanding of the emergence of scale invariance in far-from-equilibrium growth, and the two large classes of kinetic roughening processes, characterized by non-conserved (Kardar-Parisi-Zhang) and conserved (ideal molecular beam epitaxy (MBE)) surface relaxation, respectively, are treated separately.

Creep and Flow Regimes of Magnetic Domain-Wall Motion in Ultrathin Pt / Co / Pt Films with Perpendicular Anisotropy

TL;DR: The dissipation limited flow regime is found to be consistent with precessional domain-wall motion, analysis of which yields values for the damping parameter, alpha, which is consistent with general theories for driven elastic interfaces in weakly disordered media.

Domain wall creep in an ising ultrathin magnetic film

TL;DR: MDW velocity measurements down to the so called creep regime show that the average energy barrier scales as $(1/H{)}^{\ensuremath{\mu}phantom}\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom¬0ex}2/3$.
