A weighted Olami, Feder, and Christensen (OFC) model, improving the redistribution rule of the original model, has been introduced. It can be seen as a generalization of the OFC model and exhibits Self-organized criticality (SOC) behavior, too. The stress evolution process has been accelerated...

We propose a cellular automaton model for neuronal networks that combines short-term synaptic plasticity with long-term metaplasticity. We investigate how these two mechanisms contribute to attaining and maintaining operation at the critical point. We find that short-term plasticity, represented...

We investigate here self-organised criticality (SOC) in two-dimensional dissipative sandpile models without the local conservation law. Both dissipative cellular automata and dissipative coupled map lattice models with open boundary conditions are considered. There appears to be no evidence for...

In this paper, using both analytic methods and Monte Carlo simulations with our triangle cluster algorithm, we illustrate the scaling behavior of two possible 4th-order connected energy cumulants across the well-known second and first-order phase transitions of the Baxter–Wu model under zero...

The double perovskite (DP) Sr2CrReO6, with its high Curie temperature, is a good candidate for magneto-electric and magneto-optic applications. Thus, a theoretical study by Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) and Mean Field Approximation (MFA) in the context of the Ising model is important for a better...

Using mean-field renormalization group (MFRG) and surface-bulk mean-field renormalization group (SBMFRG) methods, we study the critical properties of classical Heisenberg and XY models. We show the exact result that there is no finite temperature phase transition in one dimension and very good...

We present the results of Monte Carlo simulations for the critical dynamics of the three-dimensional site-diluted quenched Ising model. Three different dynamics are considered, these correspond to the local update Metropolis scheme as well as to the Swendsen–Wang and Wolff cluster algorithms....

The four-dimensional Ising model is simulated on the Creutz cellular automaton. The computed values of the critical temperature, the static critical exponents for the order parameter, the magnetic susceptibility, the specific heat, and the linear dynamical critical exponent for the order...

A method is developed to calculate the critical line of two dimensional (2D) anisotropic Ising model including nearest-neighbor interactions. The method is based on the real-space renormalization group (RG) theory with increasing block sizes. The reduced temperatures, Ks (where K=JkBT and J, kB,...

We have studied a model of self-interacting branched polymers on the three-dimensional Sierpinski gasket lattice, in the presence of an attractive impenetrable fractal boundary. Using an exact renoramlization group approach, we have determined the phase diagram boundaries of this model, and its...
