Dynamical Transitions between Stick-Slip and Steady Motions of Bistable Units with Global and Asymmetric Local Interactions

摘要

For a system consisting of bistable units with global and asymmetric local interactions, there exist two different types of dynamical transition between stick-slip and steady motions: continuous and discontinuous in the amplitude of stickslip motion. These two types are consistent with the experimental findings in a dry friction system. The dynamical phase diagram and other types of transition are also discussed.
