We present a dynamical scaling hypothesis for generic sandpile automata, and additionally explore the kinetic roughening of the sandpile surface, indicating its relationship with the sandpile evolution. Finally, we comment on the surprisingly good agreement found between this model, and a previous continuum model of sandpile dynamics, from the viewpoint of critical phenomena.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2000-03-01T11:54:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "rough surfaces", "avalanches", "simple lattice model", "evolving structural disorder", "surface properties" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
