Hydrogen is looked upon as the next generation clean energy carrier, search for an efficient material and method for storing hydrogen has been pursued relentlessly. Improving hydrogen storage capacity to meet DOE targets has been challenging and research efforts are continuously put forth to...

We study long-range correlations and trends in time series extracted from the data of seismic events occurred from 1973 to 2011 in a rectangular region that contains mainly all the continental part of Colombia. The long-range correlations are detected by the calculation of the Hurst exponents...

This article shows numerically that the variance of the stretching exponents for two-dimensional chaotic area-preserving systems grows asymptotically as a linear function of time, although an intermediate anomalous power-law scaling may occur. This implies that the autocorrelation function of...

It is well known that empirical data coming from financial markets, like stock market indices, commodities, interest rates, traded volumes and foreign exchange rates have a multifractal structure. Multifractals were introduced in the field of economics to surpass the shortcomings of classical...

Much of the on-going statistical analysis of DNA sequences is focused on the estimation of characteristics of coding and non-coding regions that would possibly allow discrimination of these regions. In the current approach, we concentrate specifically on genes and intergenic regions. To estimate...

By means of factorial moments (FM), the fractal structures embedded in gait time series are investigated. Intermittency is found in records for healthy objects. And this kind of intermittency is much sensitive to disease or outside influences. It is found that FM is an effective tool to deal...

In the given paper, we consider the scaling features of long letter sequences like human writings, discretized images and discretized financial data. Using several approaches we show that the symbolic strings and time series being analyzed have a complex multiscale structure and demonstrate...
