Characterizing flow behavior underlying horizontal oil–water flows from experimental measurements is a challenging problem in the fields of time series analysis and fluid mechanics. We systematically conduct a horizontal oil–water two-phase flow experiment and use our designed distributed...

2007–2008 US financial crisis adversely affected the stock markets all over the world.  Asian markets also came under pressure and were differently affected. As markets under stress could reveal features that remain hidden under normal conditions, we use MF-DFA technique to investigate the...

Studying human behavior in virtual environments provides extraordinary opportunities for a quantitative analysis of social phenomena with levels of accuracy that approach those of the natural sciences. In this paper we use records of player activities in the massive multiplayer online game...

The multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis of time series is able to reveal the presence of long-range correlations and, at the same time, to characterize the self-similarity of the series. The rich information derivable from the characteristic exponents and the multifractal spectrum can be...

We propose a complex quantity, AL, to characterize the degree of disorder of L-length binary symbolic sequences. As examples, we respectively apply it to typical random and deterministic sequences. One kind of random sequences is generated from a periodic binary sequence and the other is...

This article presents novel results revealing non-equilibrium phase transition processes in the solar wind plasma during a strong shock event, which took place on 26th September 2011. Solar wind plasma is a typical case of stochastic spatiotemporal distribution of physical state variables such...

We calculate the Shannon entropy of a time series by using the probability density functions of the characteristic sizes of the long-range correlated clusters introduced in [A. Carbone, G. Castelli, H.E. Stanley, Phys. Rev. E 69 (2004) 026105]. We define three different measures of the entropy...

We explore the relation between correlation dimension, approximate entropy and sample entropy parameters, which are commonly used in nonlinear systems analysis. Using theoretical considerations we identify the points which are shared by all these complexity algorithms and show explicitly that...

Understanding the nonlinear and complex dynamics underlying the gas–liquid slug flow is a significant but challenging problem. We systematically carried out gas–liquid two-phase flow experiments for measuring the time series of flow signals, which is studied in terms of the mapping from time...

Characterizing complex dynamic behaviors arising from various inclined oil–water two-phase flow patterns is a challenging problem in the fields of nonlinear dynamics and fluid mechanics. We systematically carried out inclined oil–water two-phase flow experiments for measuring the time series...
