Complex networks have established themselves in recent
years as being particularly suitable and flexible for representing
and modelling many complex natural and artificial systems.
Oil--water two-phase flow is one of the most complex systems. In
this paper, we use complex networks to study the inclined oil--water
two-phase flow. Two different complex network construction methods
are proposed to build two types of networks, i.e. the flow pattern
complex network (FPCN) and fluid dynamic complex network (FDCN).
Through detecting the community structure of FPCN by the
community-detection algorithm based on K-means clustering, useful
and interesting results are found which can be used for identifying
three inclined oil--water flow patterns. To investigate the dynamic
characteristics of the inclined oil--water two-phase flow, we construct
48 FDCNs under different flow conditions, and find that the
power-law exponent and the network information entropy, which are
sensitive to the flow pattern transition, can both characterize the
nonlinear dynamics of the inclined oil--water two-phase flow. In this
paper, from a new perspective, we not only introduce a complex
network theory into the study of the oil--water two-phase flow but also
indicate that the complex network may be a powerful tool for exploring
nonlinear time series in practice. 相似文献

Dynamics of the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation describing networks of diffusively coupled limit-cycle oscillators near the Hopf bifurcation is reviewed. It is shown that the Benjamin-Feir instability destabilizes the uniformly synchronized state and leads to non-uniform pattern dynamics on general networks. Nonlinear dynamics on several network topologies, i.e., local, nonlocal, global, and random networks, are briefly illustrated by numerical simulations. 相似文献

To minimize traffic congestion, understanding how traffic dynamics depend on network structure is necessary. Many real-world complex systems can be described as multilayer structures. In this paper, we introduce the idea of layers to establish a traffic model of two-layer complex networks. By comparing different two-layer complex networks based on random and scale-free networks, we find that the physical layer is much more important to the network capacity of two-layer complex networks than the logical layer. Two-layer complex networks with a homogeneous physical topology are found to be more tolerant to congestion. Moreover, simulation results show that the heterogeneity of logical and physical topologies makes the packet-delivery process of two-layer networks more efficient in the free-flow state, without the occurrence of traffic congestion. 相似文献

We study a network of coupled logistic maps whose interactions occur with a certain distribution of delay times. The local
dynamics is chaotic in the absence of coupling and thus the network is a paradigm of a complex system. There are two regimes
of synchronization, depending on the distribution of delays: when the delays are sufficiently heterogeneous the network synchronizes
on a steady-state (that is unstable for the uncoupled maps); when the delays are homogeneous, it synchronizes in a time-dependent
state (that is either periodic or chaotic). Using two global indicators we quantify the synchronizability on the two regimes,
focusing on the roles of the network connectivity and the topology. The connectivity is measured in terms of the average number
of links per node, and we consider various topologies (scale-free, small-world, star, and nearest-neighbor with and without
a central hub). With weak connectivity and weak coupling strength, the network displays an irregular oscillatory dynamics
that is largely independent of the topology and of the delay distribution. With heterogeneous delays, we find a threshold
connectivity level below which the network does not synchronize, regardless of the network size. This minimum average number
of neighbors seems to be independent of the delay distribution. We also analyze the effect of self-feedback loops and find
that they have an impact on the synchronizability of small networks with large coupling strengths. The influence of feedback,
enhancing or degrading synchronization, depends on the topology and on the distribution of delays. 相似文献

Studies of sustained oscillations on complex networks with excitable node dynamics received much interest in recent years. Although an individual unit is non-oscillatory, they may organize to form various collective oscillatory patterns through networked connections. An excitable network usually possesses a number of oscillatory modes dominated by different Winfree loops and numerous spatiotemporal patterns organized by different propagation path distributions. The traditional approach of the so-called dominant phase-advanced drive method has been well applied to the study of stationary oscillation patterns on a network. In this paper, we develop the functional-weight approach that has been successfully used in studies of sustained oscillations in gene-regulated networks by an extension to the high-dimensional node dynamics. This approach can be well applied to the study of sustained oscillations in coupled excitable units. We tested this scheme for different networks, such as homogeneous random networks, small-world networks, and scale-free networks and found it can accurately dig out the oscillation source and the propagation path. The present approach is believed to have the potential in studies competitive non-stationary dynamics. 相似文献

Based on our previously pulse-coupled integrate-and-fire neuron
model in small world networks, we investigate the effects of
different connectivity topologies on complex behavior of
electroencephalographic-like
signals produced by this model. We show that several times series
analysis methods that are often used for analyzing complex
behavior of electroencephalographic-like signals, such as reconstruction of the phase
space, correlation dimension, fractal dimension, and the Hurst
exponent within the rescaled range analysis (R/S). We find that
the different connectivity topologies lead to different dynamical
behaviors in models of integrate-and-fire neurons. 相似文献

The aim of this text is to show the central role played by networks in complex system science. A remarkable feature of network studies is to lie at the crossroads of different disciplines, from mathematics (graph theory, combinatorics, probability theory) to physics (statistical physics of networks) to computer science (network generating algorithms, combinatorial optimization) to biological issues (regulatory networks). New paradigms recently appeared, like that of ‘scale-free networks’ providing an alternative to the random graph model introduced long ago by Erdös and Renyi. With the notion of statistical ensemble and methods originally introduced for percolation networks, statistical physics is of high relevance to get a deep account of topological and statistical properties of a network. Then their consequences on the dynamics taking place in the network should be investigated. Impact of network theory is huge in all natural sciences, especially in biology with gene networks, metabolic networks, neural networks or food webs. I illustrate this brief overview with a recent work on the influence of network topology on the dynamics of coupled excitable units, and the insights it provides about network emerging features, robustness of network behaviors, and the notion of static or dynamic motif. 相似文献

We study the property of certain complex networks of being both sparse and
highly connected, which is known as “good expansion” (GE). A network has
GE properties if every subset S of nodes (up to 50% of the nodes) has a
neighborhood that is larger than some “expansion factor” φ
multiplied by the number of nodes in S. Using a graph spectral method we
introduce here a new parameter measuring the good expansion character of a
network. By means of this parameter we are able to classify 51 real-world
complex networks — technological, biological, informational, biological and
social — as GENs or non-GENs. Combining GE properties and node degree
distribution (DD) we classify these complex networks in four different
groups, which have different resilience to intentional attacks against their
nodes. The simultaneous existence of GE properties and uniform degree
distribution contribute significantly to the robustness in complex networks.
These features appear solely in 14% of the 51 real-world networks studied
here. At the other extreme we find that ∼40% of all networks are
very vulnerable to targeted attacks. They lack GE properties, display skewed
DD — exponential or power-law — and their topologies are changed more
dramatically by targeted attacks directed at bottlenecks than by the removal
of network hubs. 相似文献

Acknowledging the expanding role of complex networks in numerous scientific contexts, we examine significant functional and topological differences between bridge and brick motifs for predicting network behaviors and functions. After observing similarities between social networks and their genetic, ecological, and engineering counterparts, we identify a larger number of brick motifs in social networks and bridge motifs in the other three types. We conclude that bridge and brick motif content analysis can assist researchers in understanding the small-world and clustering properties of network structures when investigating network functions and behaviors. 相似文献

We study the dynamics of networks with coupling delay, from which the connectivity changes over time. The synchronization properties are shown to depend on the interplay of three time scales: the internal time scale of the dynamics, the coupling delay along the network links and time scale at which the topology changes. Concentrating on a linearized model, we develop an analytical theory for the stability of a synchronized solution. In two limit cases, the system can be reduced to an “effective” topology: in the fast switching approximation, when the network fluctuations are much faster than the internal time scale and the coupling delay, the effective network topology is the arithmetic mean over the different topologies. In the slow network limit, when the network fluctuation time scale is equal to the coupling delay, the effective adjacency matrix is the geometric mean over the adjacency matrices of the different topologies. In the intermediate regime, the system shows a sensitive dependence on the ratio of time scales, and on the specific topologies, reproduced as well by numerical simulations. Our results are shown to describe the synchronization properties of fluctuating networks of delay-coupled chaotic maps. 相似文献

We consider the problem of synchronization in uncertain generic complex networks. For generic complex networks with unknown dynamics of nodes and unknown coupling functions including uniform and nonuniform inner couplings, some simple linear feedback controllers with updated strengths are designed using the well-known LaSalle invariance principle. The state of an uncertain generic complex network can synchronize an arbitrary assigned state of an isolated node of the network. The famous Lorenz system is stimulated as the nodes of the complex networks with different topologies. We found that the star coupled and scale-free networks with nonuniform inner couplings can be in the state of synchronization if only a fraction of nodes are controlled. 相似文献

This review describes the investigations of oscillatory complex networks consisting of excitable nodes,focusing on the target wave patterns or say the target wave attractors.A method of dominant phase advanced driving(DPAD) is introduced to reveal the dynamic structures in the networks supporting oscillations,such as the oscillation sources and the main excitation propagation paths from the sources to the whole networks.The target center nodes and their drivers are regarded as the key nodes which can completely determine the corresponding target wave patterns.Therefore,the center(say node A) and its driver(say node B) of a target wave can be used as a label,(A,B),of the given target pattern.The label can give a clue to conveniently retrieve,suppress,and control the target waves.Statistical investigations,both theoretically from the label analysis and numerically from direct simulations of network dynamics,show that there exist huge numbers of target wave attractors in excitable complex networks if the system size is large,and all these attractors can be labeled and easily controlled based on the information given by the labels.The possible applications of the physical ideas and the mathematical methods about multiplicity and labelability of attractors to memory problems of neural networks are briefly discussed. 相似文献

Previous studies about synchronization of Kuramoto oscillators in complex networks have shown how local patterns of synchronization emerge differently in homogeneous and heterogeneous topologies. The main difference between the paths to synchronization in both topologies is rooted in the growth of the largest connected component of synchronized nodes when increasing the coupling between the oscillators. Nevertheless, a recent study focusing on this same phenomenon has claimed the contrary, stating that the statistical distribution of synchronized clusters for both types of networks is similar. Here we provide extensive numerical evidences that confirm the original claims, namely, that the microscopic and mesoscopic dynamics of the synchronized patterns indeed follow different routes. 相似文献

As people travel, human contact networks may change topologically from time to time. In this paper, we study the problem of epidemic spreading on this kind of dynamic network, specifically the one in which the rewiring dynamics of edges are carried out to preserve the degree of each node (called fitness rewiring). We also consider the adaptive rewiring of edges, which encourages disconnections from and discourages connections to infected nodes and eventually leads to the isolation of the infected from the susceptible with only a small number of links between them. We find that while the threshold of epidemic spreading remains unchanged and prevalence increases in the fitness rewiring dynamics, meeting of the epidemic threshold is delayed and prevalence is reduced (if adaptive dynamics are included). To understand these different behaviors, we introduce a new measure called the “mean change of effective links” and find that creation and deletion of pathways for pathogen transmission are the dominant factors in fitness and adaptive rewiring dynamics, respectively. 相似文献

The theory of complex networks and of disordered systems is used to study the stability and dynamical properties of a simple model of material flow networks defined on random graphs. In particular we address instabilities that are characteristic of flow networks in economic, ecological and biological systems. Based on results from random matrix theory, we work out the phase diagram of such systems defined on extensively connected random graphs, and study in detail how the choice of control policies and the network structure affects stability. We also present results for more complex topologies of the underlying graph, focussing on finitely connected Erdös-Réyni graphs, Small-World Networks and Barabási-Albert scale-free networks. Results indicate that variability of input-output matrix elements, and random structures of the underlying graph tend to make the system less stable, while fast price dynamics or strong responsiveness to stock accumulation promote stability. 相似文献

In this study, we analyze the network effect in a model of a personal communication market, by using a multi-agent based simulation approach. We introduce into the simulation model complex network structures as the interaction patterns of agents. With complex network models, we investigate the dynamics of a market in which two providers are competing. We also examine the structure of networks that affect the complex behavior of the market. By a series of simulations, we show that the structural properties of complex networks, such as the clustering coefficient and degree correlation, have a major influence on the dynamics of the market. We find that the network effect is increased if the interaction pattern of agents is characterized by a high clustering coefficient, or a positive degree correlation. We also discuss a suitable model of the interaction pattern for reproducing market dynamics in the real world, by performing simulations using real data of a social network. 相似文献

Networks of interacting components are a class of complex systems that has attracted considerable interest over the last decades.
In particular, if the dynamics of the autonomous components is characterised by an oscillatory behaviour, different types
of synchronisation can be observed in dependence on the type and strength of interactions. In this contribution, we study
the transition from non-synchronised to synchronised phase dynamics in complex networks. The most common approach to quantify
the degree of phase synchronisation in such systems is the consideration of measures of phase coherence which are averaged
over all pairs of interacting components. However, this approach implicitly assumes a spatially homogeneous synchronisation process,
which is typically not present in complex networks. As a potential alternative, two novel methods of multivariate phase synchronisation analysis are considered: synchronisation cluster analysis (SCA) and the linear variance decay (LVD)
dimension method. The strengths and weaknesses of the traditional as well as both new approaches are briefly illustrated for
a Kuramoto model with long-range coupling. As a practical application, we study how spatial heterogeneity influences the transition
to phase synchronisation in traffic networks where intersecting material flows are subjected to a self-organised decentralised
control. We find that the network performance and the degree of phase synchronisation are closely related to each other and
decrease significantly in the case of structural heterogeneities. The influences of the different parameters of our control
approach on the synchronisation process are systematically studied, yielding a sequence of Arnold tongues which correspond
to different locking modes. 相似文献

A previously introduced concept of higher order neighborhoods in complex networks, [R.F.S. Andrade, J.G.V. Miranda, T.P. Lobão, Phys. Rev. E 73 (2006) 046101] is used to define a distance between networks with the same number of nodes. With such measure, expressed in terms of the matrix elements of the neighborhood matrices of each network, it is possible to compare, in a quantitative way, how far apart in the space of neighborhood matrices two networks are. The distance between these matrices depends on both the network topologies and the adopted node numberings. While the numbering of one network is fixed, a Monte Carlo algorithm is used to find the best numbering of the other network, in the sense that it minimizes the distance between the matrices. The minimal value found for the distance reflects differences in the neighborhood structures of the two networks that arise only from distinct topologies. This procedure ends up by providing a projection of the first network on the pattern of the second one. Examples are worked out allowing for a quantitative comparison for distances among distinct networks, as well as among distinct realizations of random networks. 相似文献

We show that flowsheets of oil refineries can be associated to complex network topologies that are scale-free, display small-world effect and possess hierarchical organization. The emergence of these properties from such man-made networks is explained as a consequence of the currently used principles for process design, which include heuristics as well as algorithmic techniques. We expect these results to be valid for chemical plants of different types and capacities. 相似文献
