When the substrate is tilted by m along the positive sign direction, the critical force F_c(m) depends on m as F_c(m)-F_c(0) \\sim -|m|^{1.9(1)}. The interface velocity v near the critical force follows the scaling form v \\sim |f|^{\\theta}\\Psi_{\\pm}(m^2 /|f|^{\\theta+\\phi}) with \\theta = 0.9(1) and \\phi= 0.2(1), where f \\equiv F-F_c(0) and F is the driving force.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2000-08-16T11:01:50.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "random media", "tilt effect", "anisotropic interface", "critical force", "anisotropic quenched kardar-parisi-zhang equation" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
