Dynamical and statistical aspects of Self-organized criticality
In 1987 physicists P. Bak, C. Tang and K. Wiesenfeld (BTW) discovered
that there exists a broad class of non-linear dynamical systems, with
many degrees of freedom, that exhibit self-affine statistical
characteristics similar to what is observed in eq uilibrium systems at
critical points. Co...
