ABSTRACT:
The
variation of in BTW model in presence of holes (dissipative
sites) has been studied. The value of
decreases as the fraction of number of holes
increases. Interestingly, it is observed that the variation of the rate of
change of
with the fraction of number of holes is
different for the two different types of distribution of holes over the
lattice. When the holes are randomly distributed over the lattice then the
dissipation is more compared to that of the case when the holes are present in
the form of a single compact cluster with same fraction. The value of
is less in the first case than that observed
in the second case.
