We propose a procedure to estimate the fatigue loads on wind turbines, based on a recent framework used for reconstructing data series of stochastic properties measured at wind turbines. Through a standard fatigue analysis, we show that it is possible to accurately estimate fatigue loads in any...

We introduce a class of models composed by lattices of coupled complex-amplitude oscillators which preserve the norm. These models are particularly well adapted to investigate phenomena described by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation. The coupling between oscillators is parameterized by the...

We present evidence that the best model for empirical volume-price distributions is not always the same and it strongly depends in (i) the region of the volume-price spectrum that one wants to model and (ii) the period in time that is being modelled. To show these two features we analyze stocks...

We introduce a simple approach for testing the reliability of homogeneous generators and the Markov property of the stochastic processes underlying empirical time series of credit ratings. We analyze open access data provided by Moody's and show that the validity of these assumptions - existence...

Using available data from the New York stock market (NYSM) we test four different bi-parametric models to fit the correspondent volume-price distributions at each $10$-minute lag: the Gamma distribution, the inverse Gamma distribution, the Weibull distribution and the log-normal distribution....

The study of heavy-tailed distributions in economic and financial systems has been widely addressed since financial time series has become a research subject.After the eighties, several "highly improbable" market drops were observed (e.g. the 1987 stock market drop known as "Black Monday" and on...

We investigate the propagation of bistable fronts in lattices of diffusively and advectively coupled cubic and quartic bistable maps, reporting the distribution of both stable states for asymmetric basins of attraction. The main effects of basin symmetry and local nonlinearities are obtained by...

We investigate the impact of bistability in the emergence of synchronization in networks of chaotic maps with delayed coupling. The existence of a single finite attractor of the uncoupled map is found to be responsible for the emergence of synchronization. No synchronization is observed when the...

We consider the evolution of scale-free networks according to preferential attachment schemes and show the conditions for which the exponent characterizing the degree distribution is bounded by upper and lower values. Our framework is an agent model, presented in the context of economic networks...

We address the problem of banking system resilience by applying off-equilibrium statistical physics to a system of particles, representing the economic agents, modelled according to the theoretical foundation of the current banking regulation, the so called Merton-Vasicek model. Economic agents...
