We study the critical behavior of a driven interface in a medium with random pinning forces by analyzing spatial and temporal correlations in a lattice model recently proposed by Sneppen [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 69}, 3539 (1992)]. The static and dynamic behavior of the model is related to the properties of directed percolation. We show that, due to the interplay of local and global growth rules, the usual method of dynamical scaling has to be modified. We separate the local from the global part…

Transition from Kardar-Parisi-Zhang to tilted interface critical behavior in a solvable asymmetric avalanche model.
• Physics, Medicine
Physical review letters
• 2003
By mapping the model onto driven interface problems, it is found that the ASAP incorporates the annealed Kardar-Parizi-Zhang and quenched tilted interface dynamics for rhorho(c), respectively, with rho( c) being the critical density for given toppling probabilities and N--> infinity.

We use the Kardar–Parisi–Zhang equation with quenched noise in order to study the relaxation properties of driven interfaces in disordered media. For λ ≠ 0 this equation belongs to the directed

Abstract.We consider the dynamics and kinetic roughening of wetting fronts in the case of forced wetting driven by a constant mass flux into a 2D disordered medium. We employ a coarse-grained phase

We study the mean-field version of a model proposed by Leschhorn to describe the depinning transition of interfaces in random media. We show that evolution equations for the distribution of forces
Simulating models of turbulence and interfaces
We review recent work on scaling properties in turbulence and dynamically roughening interfaces. Although these two phenomena seem quite different, they appear to share many common features like
