Rotational sandpile models: A finite size scaling study

Nontrivial critical behaviour is observed in equilibrium lattice statistical models under rotational constraint. Effect of rotational constraint on lattice statistical models at out of equilibrium situation is important to study. Critical properties of non-equilibrium steady state of sandpile models are studied under rotational constraint via finite size scaling (FSS) analysis. Not only FSS is found to be valid for a wide range of rotational sandpile models but also they are found to belong to the same universality class.
