Model-identification and parameter extraction of the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is a well-defined procedure for improving the PEMFC efficiency for designing and control purposes. This paper presents a new version of the improved fluid search optimization algorithm for optimal...

Unlike linear ones, nonlinear business cycle models can generate sustained fluctuations even in the absence of shocks (e.g., via limit cycles/chaos). A popular approach to solving nonlinear models is perturbation methods. I show that, as typically implemented, these methods are incapable of...

This research explores five barriers, acting as obstacles to chaos in terms of policy (A), economic (B), social (C), demographic effects (D) and natural effects (E) factors for six countries: Russia, Japan, USA, Romania, Brazil and Australia and proposes a mathematical modelling using an...

We re-examine the Systemic Cycles of Accumulation (SCA) of Arrighi (2010) and Arrighi and Silver (1999) which provide a framework for the analysis of the cyclical patterns of geographical expansion of trade and production and the related shifts of hegemonic power within the world capitalist...

In this paper, we look for the relevance of chaos in the well-known Hicks-Samuelson's oscillator model investigating the endogenous fluctuations of the national income between two limits: full employment income and under-employment income. We compute the Lyapunov exponent, via Monte-Carlo...

This paper evaluates the effectiveness of the COVID-19 temporarily led restriction on short selling by the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET). We investigate the causal effect of short selling restriction on return, volatility and market quality from 2 September 2019 to 30 September 2020....

This study examines the market efciency in the prices and volumes of transactions of 41 cryptocurrencies. Specifcally, the correlation dimension (CD), Lyapunov Exponent (LE), and approximate entropy (AE) were estimated before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Then, we applied Student's t-test...
