A streamflow time series encompasses a large amount of hidden information and reliable
prediction of its behavior in the future remains a challenge. It seems that the use of …

This article presents an approach to the assessment of operational manufacturing systems
complexity based on the irregularities hidden in manufacturing key performance indicator …

We explore the potential of using a complexity measure from statistical physics as a
streamflow metric of basin-scale hydrologic alteration. The complexity measure that we …

Climate variability and change lead to changes in spatiotemporal variability in streamflow,
which complicate management of water resources. This problem is particularly critical for …

Mining activities have the potential to cause excess scour and affect the streambed stability
around bridge piers present in the vicinity. Randomness characteristics of turbulence around …

In this paper, we have analyzed the time series of daily values for three meteorological
elements, two continuous and a discontinuous one, ie, the maximum and minimum air …

Alluvial channels with sinuosity follow an altered flow behavior, contradictory to straight
flows. At the interface of surface water and groundwater, seepage is a significant …

A positive surge is associated with a sudden change in flow that increases the water depth
and modifies flow structure in a channel. Positive surges are frequently observed in artificial …

Precipitation is an important part of the hydrologic cycle, and its complexity is closely related
to surface runoff and changing groundwater dynamics, which in turn influences the accuracy …

Using multifractal analysis, we investigated in this study hydrological alterations in São
Francisco River basin, Brazil, caused by the construction of a cascade of dams and …
