Analytical solution for the long- and short-range every-pair-interactions model
Fabiano L. Ribeiro, Yunfei Li, Stefan Born +1
Many physical, biological, and social systems exhibit emergent properties that arise from the interactions between their components (cells). In this study, we systematically treat…
The metabolic origins of big size in aquatic mammals
William Roberto Luiz S. Pereira, Fabiano L. Ribeiro
The group of large aquatic mammals has representatives being the largest living beings on earth, surpassing the weight and size of dinosaurs. In this paper, we present some empiric…
Mathematical models to explain the origin of urban scaling laws: a synthetic review
Fabiano L. Ribeiro, Diego Rybski
The quest for a theory of cities that could offer a quantitative and systematic approach to manage cities is at the top priority, given the challenges humanity faces due to the inc…
Zipf's law and urban scaling: Hypotheses towards a Unified Urban Theory
Fabiano L. Ribeiro, Jose Lobo, Diego Rybski
We propose hypotheses describing the empirical finding of an association between the exponents of urban GDP scaling and Zipf's law for cities. These hypotheses represent various co…
A Gentle Introduction to Scaling Laws in Biological Systems
Fabiano L. Ribeiro, William R. L. S. Pereira
This paper investigates the role of size in biological organisms. More specifically, how the energy demand, expressed by the metabolic rate, changes according to the mass of an org…
Networks with Growth and Preferential Attachment: Modeling and Applications
Gabriel G. Piva, Fabiano L. Ribeiro, Angelica S. Mata
In this article we presented a brief study of the main network models with growth and preferential attachment. Such models are interesting because they present several characterist…
More from Less? Environmental Rebound Effects of City Size
Joao Meirelles, Fabiano Ribeiro, Gabriel Cury +1
Global sustainability relies on our capacity of understanding and guiding urban systems, and their metabolism, in an adequate way. It has been proposed that bigger and denser citie…
On the relation between Transversal and Longitudinal Scaling in Cities
Fabiano L. Ribeiro, Joao Meirelles, Vinicius M. Netto +2
Given that a group of cities follows a scaling law connecting urban population with socio-economic or infrastructural metrics (transversal scaling), should we expect that each city…
Evolution of urban scaling: evidence from Brazil
Joao Meirelles, Camilo Rodrigues Neto, Fernando Fagundes Ferreira +2
During the last years, the new science of municipalities has been established as a fertile quantitative approach to systematically understand the urban phenomena. One of its main p…
Fractal Dimension and Universality in Avascular Tumor Growth
Fabiano L. Ribeiro, Renato Vieira dos Santos, Angélica S. Mata
The comprehension of tumor growth is a intriguing subject for scientists. New researches has been constantly required to better understand the complexity of this phenomenon. In thi…
Complex Network Analysis of Brazilian Power Grid
Gabriela C. Martins, Leonardo S. Oliveira, Fabiano L. Ribeiro +1
Power Grids and other delivery networks has been attracted some attention by the network literature last decades. Despite the Power Grids dynamics has been controlled by computer s…
First Principles Attempt to Unify some Population Growth Models
Fabiano L. Ribeiro
In this work, some phenomenological models, those that are based only on the population information (macroscopic level), are deduced in an intuitive way. These models, as for insta…
A Non-Phenomenological Model to Explain Population Growth Behaviors
Fabiano Lemes Ribeiro
This paper proposes a non-phenomenological model of population growth that is based on the interactions between the individuals that compose the system. It is assumed that the indi…
