Numerical study and computer simulations of the spring-block model

  We present numerical solutions of the equations of motion of the driven spring-block model with stick-slip dynamics. The system consists of an array of N masses which describes the statistical and dynamic properties of dissipative systems. In this study, we are interested in very low and very high...
