We study the dynamical aspects of a statistical-mechanical model for fracture of heterogeneous media: the fiber bundle model with various interaction range. Although the model does not include any thermal activation process, the system exhibits creep-like behaviors under a constant load being slightly above the critical value. These creep-like behaviors comprise three stages: in the primary and tertiary stages, the strain rate exhibits power-law behaviors with time, which are well described by the Omori-Utsu and the inverse Omori laws, respectively, although the exponents are larger than those typically observed in experiments. A characteristic time that defines the onset of power-law behavior in the Omori-Utsu law is found to decrease with the strength of disorder in the system. The analytical solution, which agrees with the above numerical results, is obtained for the mean-field limit. Beyond the mean-field limit, the exponent for the Omori-Utsu law tends to be even larger but decreases with the disorder in the system. Increasing the spatial range of interactions, this exponent is found to be independent of disorder and to converge to the mean-field value. In contrast, the inverse Omori law remains independent of the spatial range of interaction and the disorder strength.

We develop an elasto-plastic description for the transient dynamics prior to steady flow of athermally yielding materials. Our mean-field model not only reproduces the experimentally observed non-linear time dependence of the shear-rate response to a
n external shear-stress, but also allows for the determination of the different physical processes involved in the onset of the re-acceleration phase after the initial critical slowing down and a distinct well defined fluidization phase. The evidenced power-law dependence of the fluidization time on the distance of the applied to an age dependent static yield stress is not universal but strongly dependent on initial conditions.
We observed asymmetric critical slowing down and asymmetric dynamical scaling exponent in the superheating and supercooling kinetic processes during the thermally-induced metal-insulator transition of MnNiSn based heusler alloy. During the transition
to the insulator phase, the critical-like features get enhanced compared to the transition back to the metal phase. These experimental findings suggest that the metastable phase in the cooling branch of hysteresis has approached close to the spinodal instability. On the other hand, the extended disorder, generated over and above the intrinsic crystal defects during heating, triggers the excess heterogeneous nucleation before reaching the spinodal point. Zero temperature random field Ising model (ZTRFIM) simulation, inscribed for the athermal martensitic transitions, support the argument that the disorder smears the spinodal instabilities as the correlation length is bounded by the average distance between the disorder points.
Yield stress fluids display complex dynamics, in particular when driven into the transient regime between the solid and the flowing state. Inspired by creep experiments on dense amorphous materials, we implement mesocale elasto-plastic descriptions t
o analyze such transient dynamics in athermal systems. Both our mean-field and space-dependent approaches consistently reproduce the typical experimental strain rate responses to different applied steps in stress. Moreover, they allow us to understand basic processes involved in the strain rate slowing down (creep) and the strain rate acceleration (fluidization) phases. The fluidization time increases in a power-law fashion as the applied external stress approaches a static yield stress. This stress value is related to the stress over-shoot in shear start-up experiments, and it is known to depend on sample preparation and age. By calculating correlations of the accumulated plasticity in the spatially resolved model, we reveal different modes of cooperative motion during the creep dynamics.
We analyse the emergence of Kovacs-like memory effects in athermal systems within the linear response regime. This is done by starting from both the master equation for the probability distribution and the equations for the physically relevant moment
s. The general results are applied to a general class of models with conserved momentum and non-conserved energy. Our theoretical predictions, obtained within the first Sonine approximation, show an excellent agreement with the numerical results.
The spatial correlation during a failure event of a one-dimensional fiber bundle model is studied when three main parameters guiding the dynamics of the model is tuned: the fluctuation of local strength ($beta$), range of stress relaxation ($gamma$),
and size of the bundle ($L$). Both increasing disorder strength and stress release range favor rupture events, random in space like percolation. An increase in system size on the other hand nucleating failure. At an intermediate disorder strength and stress release range, when these two parameters compete, the failure process shows avalanches and precursor activities. A complex phase diagram on the $beta-gamma-L$ plane is presented showing different failure modes - nucleation, avalanche, and percolation, depending on the spatial correlation observed during the failure process.
