We quantitatively describe the competition between the thermal fluctuations and disorder by the Ginzburg-Landau approach using both the replica method in statics and the dynamical Martin-Siggia-Rose approach which allows generalization beyond linear response. The two methods are consistent in static, while the dynamical method allows calculation of the critical current as function of magnetic field and temperature. The surface in the J-B-T space defined by this function separates between a dissipative moving vortex matter regime and vortex glass. The non-Ohmic I-V curve is obtained. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V.
