Abstract
A model in which a three-dimensional elastic medium is represented by a network of identical masses connected by springs of random strengths and allowed to vibrate only along a selected axis of the reference frame, exhibits an Anderson localization transition. To study this transition, we assume that the dynamical matrix of the network is given by a product of a sparse random matrix with real, independent, Gaussian-distributed non-zero entries and its transpose. A finite-time scaling analysis of system's response to an initial excitation allows us to estimate the critical parameters of the localization transition. The critical exponent is found to be $\nu = 1.57 \pm 0.02$ in agreement with previous studies of Anderson transition belonging to the three-dimensional orthogonal universality class.
