英文摘要 | Granular materials have frequently been used as representations of natural fault gouges. Although they can reproduce proper avalanche behaviors, the universality of the scaling exponent of avalanche size remains debatable. As a core issue in both amorphous plasticity and geophysics, avalanche universality may help reconcile the avalanche behaviors of earthquake and granular materials into the same universality class. We examine numerically the signatures of stress avalanches emerging from quasi‐static shear of granular materials with different size polydispersity. A persistent serrated plastic flow phenomenon is observed in our models with varying polydispersity. The stress drop is well defined by a truncated power‐law distribution P(s)~s−τexp(−s/smax). The exponent τ and cutoff stress drop smax show a clear dependence on polydispersity, which reflects a tuned criticality. We further calculate the effective temperature from the statistics of energy fluctuations. The effective temperature volatility can be used to explain the tuned critical behaviors of granular gouge. |
