Traffic Grammar and Algorithmic Complexity in Urban Freeway Flow Patterns

Haynes, Kingsley; Kulkarni, Rajendra; Stough, Roger - In: Networks and Spatial Economics 7 (2007) 4, pp. 333-351

This paper uses techniques from formal language theory to describe the linear spatial patterns in urban freeway traffic flows in order to understand and analyze “hidden order” in such high volume systems. A method for measuring randomness based on algorithmic entropy is introduced and...

An inverse kinetic theory for the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations

Ellero, M.; Tessarotto, M. - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 355 (2005) 2, pp. 233-250

algorithmic complexity of the Poisson equation for the fluid pressure is presented. The theory is based on the construction of a …

Zipping thermal ratchets

Arizmendi, C.M.; Sanchez, J.R.; Family, F. - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 327 (2003) 1, pp. 111-114

Thermal ratchets are Brownian models where time correlated nonequilibrium fluctuations interacting with a spatially asymmetric potential are sufficient conditions to give rise to rectified transport. The nonequilibrium fluctuations act as a source of negentropy (physical information). Data...
