Effect of disorder on the vortex dynamics in superconducting Josephson junction arrays and clusters
We have studied the effect of intrinsic disorder on the transport properties of large Josephson junction arrays and clusters. In large arrays, intrinsic random disorder results in the washing out of features in the magnetoresistance. It also gives rise to multiple onsets in the resistive transition …

Disorder at first-order classical and quantum phase transitions
… dissertation studies the effects of quenched disorder on classical, quantum and nonequilibrium phase transitions. After a short introduction which covers the basic concepts of phase transitions, finite-size scaling and random disorder, the dissertation focuses on four separate but related …

History Induced Critical Scaling in Disordered Media and Super Diffusive Growth in Highly Advective Random Environments
… systems in the presence of quenched random disorder is studied. In noisy, hysteretic systems, the role of driving force history is studied in the context of the non-equilibrium, zero-temperature Random Field Ising Model (RFIM). The RFIM was originally developed as a simple model for …

Characterization of wave transport in non-conservative media with random and correlated disorder
<p>"Passive quasi-one-dimensional random media exhibit one of the three regimes of transport - ballistic, diffusive, or Anderson localization - depending on system size. The ballistic and diffusion approximations assumes particle transport, whereas Anderson Localization occurs when wave …
