Structure and dynamics of evolving complex networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel UniversityThe analysis of large disordered complex networks has recently received enormous attention motivated by both academic and commercial interest.

Some applications of the Lambert W function to classical statistical mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We apply the recently defined Lambert W function to some problems of classical statistical mechanics, i.e. the Tonks gas and a fluid of classical particles interacting via repulsive pair potentials.

Classical and quantum mechanics with chaos [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
This thesis is concerned with the study, classically and quantum mechanically, of the square billiard with particular attention to chaos in both cases. Classically, we show that the rotating square billiard has two regular limits with a mixture of order ...

Studying Organisational Topology with Simple Computational Models [PDF]

open access: yes
The behaviour of many complex systems is influenced by the underlying network topology. In particular, this applies to social systems in which people or organisational units collaboratively solve problems.

MECHANICAL MODEL of PERSONAL INCOME DISTRIBUTION [PDF]

open access: yes
A microeconomic model is developed, which accurately predicts the shape of personal income distribution (PID) in the United States and the evolution of the shape over time.

MODELLING OF STRESS GRADIENT EFFECT ON FATIGUE LIFE USING WEIBULL BASED DISTRIBUTION FUNCTION [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In the present paper, a new approach is developed in order to take into account the stress gradient effect on fatigue life of structural components. The proposed approach is based on the weakest link concept in which the shape coefficient of the Weibull ...

Prediction of anomalous diffusion and algebraic relaxations for long-range interacting systems, using classical statistical mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
International audienceWe explain the ubiquity and extremely slow evolution of non gaussian out-of-equilibrium distributions for the Hamiltonian Mean-Field model, by means of traditional kinetic theory.

Statistical Mechanics of Money, Income, and Wealth: A Short Survey [PDF]

open access: yes
In this short paper, we overview and extend the results of our papers cond-mat/0001432, cond-mat/0008305, and cond-mat/0103544, where we use an analogy with statistical physics to describe probability distributions of money, income, and wealth in society.

One-dimensional statistical mechanics for identical particles: the Calogero and anyon cases [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
17 pagesThe thermodynamic of particles with intermediate statistics interpolating between Bose and Fermi statistics is adressed in the simple case where there is one quantum number per particle. Such systems are essentially one-dimensional.
