Depending on both the degree of conservation and the convexity of the driving we find different behaviors, ranging from self-organized criticality, in the sense that the distribution of events (avalanches) obeys a power law, to a macroscopic synchronization of the population of oscillators, with avalanches of the size of the system.4 p.application/pdfeng(c) American Physical Society, 1995Física estadísticaBiofísicaStatistical physicsBiological and medical physicsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article99840info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
