In this paper, we study the thermal relaxation in the one-dimensional self-gravitating system, or the so-called sheet model. According to the standard argument, the thermal relaxation time of the system is around $Nt_c$, where $N$ is the…

We study the relaxation towards thermodynamical equilibrium of a 1-D gravitational system. This OSC model shows a series of critical energies $E_{cn}$ where new equilibria appear and we focus on the homogeneous ($n=0$), one-peak ($n=\pm 1$)…

Under steady shear, a foam relaxes stress through intermittent rearrangements of bubbles accompanied by sudden drops in the stored elastic energy. We use a simple model of foam that incorporates both elasticity and dissipation to study the…

A classical long-range-interacting $N$-particle system relaxes to thermal equilibrium on time scales growing with $N$; in the limit $N\to \infty$ such a relaxation time diverges. However, a completely non-collisional relaxation process,…
