The Abelian sandpile model was the first example of a self-organized critical system studied by Bak, Tang and Wiesenfeld. The dynamics of the sandpiles occur when the grains topple over a graph. In this study, we allow the graph to evolve…
The mechanism of self-organized criticality is based on a steady slow loading and a quick huge stress-release. We add the clustering of the events in space and time to the Bak-Tang-Wiesenfeld cellular automaton and obtain the truncated…
Self-organizing system is studied whose behavior is governed by field of an order parameter, a fluctuation amplitude of conjugate field and a couple of Grassmannian conjugated fields that define the entropy as a control parameter. Within…
Failure in disordered solids is accompanied by intermittent fluctuations extending over a broad range of scales. The implied scaling has been previously associated with either spinodal or critical points. We use an analytically transparent…
Small-scale intermittency is studied as the deviation of the probability distributions of pseudodissipation, dissipation and enstrophy in turbulence from those of a Gaussian random velocity field. This deviation is quantified using…
We perform extensive simulations of the sandpile model on a Sierpinski gasket. Critical exponents for waves and avalanches are determined. We extend the existing theory of waves to the present case. This leads to an exact value for the…
The numerical experiments of turbulence conducted by Gotoh et al. are analyzed precisely with the help of the formulae for the scaling exponents of velocity structure function and for the probability density function (PDF) of velocity…
We report on the observation of gravity-capillary wave turbulence on the surface of a fluid in a high-gravity environment. By using a large-diameter centrifuge, the effective gravity acceleration is tuned up to 20 times the Earth gravity.…
The interaction between near-wall turbulence and wall curvature is described for the incompressible flow in a plane channel with a small concave-convex-concave bump on the bottom wall, with height comparable to the wall-normal location of…
Structure formation in turbulence is effectively an instability of "plasma" formed by fluctuations serving as particles. These "particles" are quantumlike; namely, their wavelengths are non-negligible compared to the sizes of background…
Avalanches, or Avalanche-like, events are often observed in the dynamical behaviour of many complex systems which span from solar flaring to the Earth's crust dynamics and from traffic flows to financial markets. Self-organized criticality…
Turbulence, namely, irregular fluctuations in space and time characterize fluid flows in general and atmospheric flows in particular.The irregular,i.e., nonlinear space-time fluctuations on all scales contribute to the unpredictable nature…
Turbulent fluid flows exhibit a complex small-scale structure with frequently occurring extreme velocity gradients. Particles probing such swirling and straining regions respond with an intricate shape-dependent orientational dynamics,…
Shell model turbulence is a simplified mathematical framework that captures essential features of incompressible fluid turbulence such as the energy cascade, intermittency and anomalous scaling of the fluid observables. We perform a…
Avalanches in sandpiles are represented throughout a process of percolation in a Bethe lattice with a feedback mechanism. The results indicate that the frequency spectrum and probability distribution of avalanches resemble more to…
We present the results of a numerical investigation of three-dimensional decaying turbulence with statistically homogeneous and anisotropic initial conditions. We show that at large times, in the inertial range of scales: (i) isotropic…
The scale dependent intermittency exponents in developed hydrodynamic turbulence are calculated assuming a natural hierarchy of correlations in the turbulence. The major correlations are taken into account explicitly, while the remaining…
Recent experimental and computational studies indicate that near wall turbulent flows can be characterized by universal small scale autonomous dynamics that are modulated by large scale structures. We formulate numerical simulations of near…
We introduce a general theoretical scheme for a class of phenomena characterized by an extremal dynamics and quenched disorder. The approach is based on a transformation of the quenched dynamics into a stochastic one with cognitive memory…
We show that hyperscaling and finite-size scaling imply that the probability distribution of the order parameter in finite size critical systems exhibit data collapse. We consider the examples of equilibrium critical systems, and a…
