96. [63] It is sometimes argued that Takayasu's aggregation model (H. Takayasu, Phys. Rev. Lett. 63, 2563 (1989)) is an example of SOC without slow driving. The model has a scale-invariant scaling limit, rather than a stationary state as such. More significantly, Dhar has shown that Takayasu's model is equivalent to a sandpile model, which does exhibit scale invariance under slow driving.
97. [64] See Ref. [11], which also includes a discussion of directed sandpiles [35], for which the avalanche exponents have been determined.
