Аннотация
We address the problem of the microscopic reorganization of a granular medium under a compaction process in the framework of Tetris-like models. We point out the existence of regions of spatial organization which we call domains, and study their time evolution. It turns out that after an initial transient, most of the activity of the system is concentrated on the boundaries between domains. One can then describe the compaction phenomenon as a coarsening process for the domains, and a progressive reduction of domain boundaries. We discuss the link between the coarsening process and the slow dynamics in the framework of a model of active walkers on active substrates.
