TLDR
In this article, a systeme dynamique dissipatif discret qui presente une transition vers la turbulence par intermittence is described, and a model of dynamique deterministe is presented.
Abstract
Nous etudions un systeme dynamique dissipatif discret qui presente une transition vers la turbulence par intermittence. Au seuil d'instabilite, ce modele possede une structure d'homothetie interne analogue a celle des modeles de bruits de Mandelbrot. Le fait que l'on obtienne un spectre en 1/ f suggere que de tels spectres peuvent tirer leur origine d'une dynamique deterministe a court terme bien que non predictible a long terme, au cœur de notre comprehension actuelle de la transition vers la turbulence.

Is walking a random walk? Evidence for long-range correlations in stride interval of human gait

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that conventional models of gait generation fail to reproduce the observed scaling behavior and a new type of central pattern generator model is introduced that successfully accounts for the experimentally observed long-range correlations.

Random texts exhibit Zipf's-law-like word frequency distribution

TL;DR: It is shown that the distribution of word frequencies for randomly generated texts is very similar to Zipf's law observed in natural languages such as English.

Scale invariance in biology: coincidence or footprint of a universal mechanism?

TL;DR: A self‐contained review of recent work on complex biological systems which exhibit no characteristic scale and the concepts of absence of characteristic scale (power‐law distributions, fractals and 1/f‐noise) and of critical phenomena are reviewed.

Effects of Colored Noise on Stochastic Resonance in Sensory Neurons

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that 1/f noise can be better than white noise for enhancing the response of a neuron to a weak signal, under certain circumstances, and the biological implications of 1 /f noise were discussed.

Successive Bifurcations Leading to Stochastic Behavior

TL;DR: In this paper, a model of interacting normal modes in a nonlinear, dissipative system is constructed in order to analyze speculations by Ruelle and Takens, and possible relevance of these phenomena for physical systems is discussed.
