Quantitative Diagnoses and Comprehensive Evaluations of the Rationality of Chinese Urban Development Patterns

Fang, Chuanglin; Wang, Zhenbo - In: Sustainability 7 (2015) 4, pp. 3859-3884

diagnostic index system that uses GIS technology and a Chinese urban scale structure rationality diagnostic model, functional … with rationality influenced by historical evolution, zoning adjustments and natural conditions; that overall, the scale … structure of Chinese cities is rational, with 68.03% of all cities rational in this respect, conforming to Zipf’s law and …

Skrócona wersja Skali Postaw Wobec Pieniędzy SPP-25. Dobór pozycji i walidacja narzędzia

Gasiorowska, Agata - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2013

Money Attitude Questionnaire is an original, Polish scale measuring cognitive, emotional and behavioral aspects of attitudes towards money. Because of its considerable length, in this paper I present a new, short version of this scale. The items were selected on the basis of factor loading and...

Nonextensivity and galaxy clustering in the Universe

Wuensche, C.A.; Ribeiro, A.L.B.; Ramos, F.M.; Rosa, R.R. - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 344 (2004) 3, pp. 743-749

We investigate two important questions about the use of the nonextensive thermostatistics (NETS) formalism in the context of nonlinear galaxy clustering in the Universe. Firstly, we define a quantitative criterion for justifying nonextensivity at different physical scales. Then, we discuss the...

Clustering in galaxy distribution: comparison between redshift surveys

Montuori, Marco; Pietronero, Luciano; Bottaccio, Maurizio - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 305 (2002) 1, pp. 242-246

The characterization of the galaxy clustering properties in the universe is one of the most interesting and controversial issues in modern cosmology. Here we present the results of the analysis of the recently available three-dimensional catalogues of galaxies, performed with the tools of modern...

Morphometry of spatial patterns

Beisbart, Claus; Buchert, Thomas; Wagner, Herbert - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 293 (2001) 3, pp. 592-604

Minkowski functionals constitute a family of order parameters which discriminate spatial patterns according to size, shape, and connectivity. Here we point out that these scalar descriptors can be complemented by vector-valued curvature measures also known as Quermaß vectors. Using examples of...

Multifractal absolute galactic luminosity distributions and the multifractal Hubble 3/2 law

Lovejoy, S.; Garrido, P.; Schertzer, D. - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 287 (2000) 1, pp. 49-82

Scale-invariant intergalactic dynamics governed by a statistically homogeneous cascade process generically yields multifractal luminosity distributions with highly inhomogeneous realizations (the standard nonfractal and fractal models are special limiting cases). The main obstacles for extending...

Long-tailed distributions and non-uniform expansion in the analysis of large-scale structure

Schulman, L.S. - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 245 (1997) 3, pp. 253-260

This article presents two caveats for the analysis of large-scale structure. Within distances for which the fractal …
