A novel approach for converting spatio-temporal series into complex networks

G. Cigdem Yalcin, M. Berk Onder

This study aims to offer a new perspective on complex network representation of real-world systems. Currently, the most well-known transformation algorithms in the literature treat…

Non-standard power grid frequency statistics in Asia, Australia, and Europe

Xinyi Wen, Mehrnaz Anvari, Leonardo Rydin Gorjao +3

The power-grid frequency reflects the balance between electricity supply and demand. Measuring the frequency and its variations allows monitoring of the power balance in the system…

Non-linear, bivariate stochastic modelling of power-grid frequency applied to islands

Ulrich Oberhofer, Leonardo Rydin Gorjão, G. Cigdem Yalcin +3

Mitigating climate change requires a transition away from fossil fuels towards renewable energy. As a result, power generation becomes more volatile and options for microgrids and…

Microscopic fluctuations in power-grid frequency recordings at the sub-second scale

Benjamin Schäfer, Leonardo Rydin Gorjão, G. Cigdem Yalcin +5

Complex systems, such as the power grid, are essential for our daily lives. Many complex systems display (multi-)fractal behavior, correlated fluctuations and power laws. Whether t…

Open data base analysis of scaling and spatio-temporal properties of power grid frequencies

Leonardo Rydin Gorjão, Richard Jumar, Heiko Maass +7

The electrical energy system has attracted much attention from an increasingly diverse research community. Many theoretical predictions have been made, from scaling laws of fluctua…

Dynamical modelling of cascading failures in the Turkish power grid

Benjamin Schäfer, G. Cigdem Yalcin

A reliable supply of electricity is critical for our modern society and any large scale disturbance of the electrical system causes substantial costs. In 2015, one overloaded trans…

Generalized statistical mechanics of cosmic rays: Application to positron-electron spectral indices

G. Cigdem Yalcin, Christian Beck

We apply generalized statistical mechanics developed for complex systems to theoretically predict energy spectra of particle and anti-particle degrees of freedom in cosmic ray flux…

Entropies for severely contracted configuration space

G. Cigdem Yalcin, Carlos Velarde, Alberto Robledo

We demonstrate that dual entropy expressions of the Tsallis type apply naturally to statistical-mechanical systems that experience an exceptional contraction of their configuration…

Extreme event statistics of daily rainfall: Dynamical systems approach

G. Cigdem Yalcin, Pau Rabassa, Christian Beck

We analyse the probability densities of daily rainfall amounts at a variety of locations on the Earth. The observed distributions of the amount of rainfall fit well to a q-exponent…

Incidence of -statistics in rank distributions

G. Cigdem Yalcin, Alberto Robledo, Murray Gell-Mann

We show that size-rank distributions with power-law decay (often only over a limited extent) observed in a vast number of instances in a widespread family of systems obey Tsallis s…

Environmental Superstatistics

G. Cigdem Yalcin, Christian Beck

A thermodynamic device placed outdoors, or a local ecosystem, is subject to a variety of different temperatures given by short-tem (daily) and long-term (seasonal) variations. In t…

Currents in complex polymers: an example of superstatistics for short time series

G. Cigdem Yalcin, Christian Beck

We apply superstatistical techniques to an experimental time series of measured transient current through a thin Aluminium-PMMA-Aluminium film. We show that in good approximation t…
