The scaling behaviour of self-potential data (in the frequency range between 0 and 0.125Hz) observed in 1995 at Acapulco station in Mexico were investigated using the detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA), which is a powerful method to detect scaling in nonstationary time series. Approximately two scaling regions with two different scaling exponents α1 (on low timescales) and α2 (on high timesca...

In this work we have calculated the dynamic critical exponent z for 2-, 3and 4-dimensional Ising models using the Wolff’s algorithm through dynamic finite size scaling. We have studied time evolution of the average cluster size, the magnetization and higher moments of the magnetization. It is observed that dynamic scaling is independent of the algorithm. In this sense, universality is establish...

The significance of xylem function and metabolic scaling theory begins from the idea that water transport is strongly coupled to growth rate. At the same time, coordination of water transport and growth seemingly should differ between plant functional types. We evaluated the relationships between water transport, growth and species stature in six species of co-occurring trees and shrubs. Within...

The critical behaviour of Mn0.94Nb0.06CoGe alloy around the paramagnetic-ferromagnetic phase transition was studied based on the field dependence on magnetic entropy change. By using the obtained exponents, the modified Arrott plot is consistent with that by using conventional method. These critical exponents are confirmed by the Widom scaling relation. Based on these critical exponents, the ma...

We study the kinetics of phase transitions in a Rayleigh-Benard system after onset of convection using 2D Swift-Hohenberg equation. An initially uniform state evolves to one whose ground state is spatially periodic. We confirmed previous results which showed that dynamical scaling occurs at medium quench (ǫ = 0.25) with scaling exponents 1/5 and 1/4 under zero noise and finite noise respectivel...
