We present kinetic Monte Carlo simulations exploring the nonequilibrium phase diagram of a modified Ziff–Gulari–Barshad (ZGB) dynamic lattice-gas model for the catalytic oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO) on a surface. The modified model includes the simultaneous presence of contaminants in...

The purpose of this paper is to model the effects of the structural size and temperature on the nominal strength of concrete structures.

A complex network provides a framework for modeling many real-world phenomena in the form of a network. In general, a complex network is considered as a graph of real world phenomena such as biological networks, ecological networks, technological networks, information networks and particularly...

Some dynamical properties for a family of two dimensional mappings controlled by three parameters are considered in this paper. For null dissipation and depending on the other control parameters, diffusion in phase space is observed. A connection with the standard mapping is made to determine...

Several experimental measurements are expressed in the form of one-dimensional profiles, for which there is a scarcity of methodologies able to classify the pertinence of a given result to a specific group. The polarization curves that evaluate the corrosion kinetics of electrodes in corrosive...

In this paper, we study the propagating properties of traffic flow on a ring road with no ramp. The numerical results show that the traffic flow on the ring road with no ramp can be divided into three traffic states and that the propagating property and proportion of each state, and the...

We investigate Tsallis q-statistics for various complex physical systems. In particular, the Tsallis q-triplet is estimated for space plasmas, atmospheric dynamics, seismicity, and brain and cardiac activity. Remarkable agreement between theoretical Tsallis predictions and experimental...

We investigated the grouping coefficients of industrial sectors in the stock network based on stock data for the U.S. and Korean stock markets. These complex networks were modeled using the minimal spanning tree (MST) method. We propose a novel approach based on the shortest path length (SPL)...

Noise has crucial effects on biological processes, chemical reactions, and various chaotic systems. This study explores the dynamical properties of noise in random Boolean networks, in which the stochasticity may cause significant deviations from deterministic descriptions. Such noise is...

Many scholars have used different metrics to quantify power grid vulnerability in the literature, but how correlated these metrics are is an interesting topic. This paper defines vulnerability as the performance drop of a power grid under a disruptive event, and selects six frequently used...
