There have been considerable advances in recent times in
understanding many common material processes that are of practical
importance, such as nonlinear response, fracture, breakdown,
earthquakes, packing, and granular flow, that are of immense
practical importance. This has been mainly due to new applications
of statistical physics, including percolation theory, fractal
concepts and self-organized criticality. This collection of
articles brings together research in those closely allied fields.
It deals with problems in material science involving random
geometries and nonlinearity at a mesoscopic scale, where local
disorder and nonlinearity influence the global behaviour of cracks,
for example, and problems where randomness in time evolution is as
crucial as the geometry itself.
