The result of the MFDFA shows that there exists obvious multifractal scaling behavior in produced time series. We compare the MFDFA results for original time series with those for shuffled series, and find that its multifractal nature is due to two factors: broadness of probability density function of the series and different correlations in small- and large-scale fluctuations. This may provide new insight to the problem of the origin of multifractality in financial time series.展开更多

A refined finite element model was developed to conduct full-process analysis of construction of super-high rise buildings like Shanghai World Financial Center, in which the discrete analysis method of time-varying structures and age-adjusted effective modulus method were both used. In the finite element analysis, the whole construction process was divided into a series of stages, each with a structural system that is a part of the whole structure and with different material parameters, geometrical parameters, loading and boundary conditions. The whole construction process of Shanghai World Financial Center in consideration of creep of concrete was simulated successfully by using the finite element model and the analytical method developed. With respect to different construction stage, the total vertical deformation, inter-floor compression deformation and the relative deformation between the outer frame and the core-wall were obtained through the analysis. The comparison between the results from the stage-wise full-process analysis of construction with and without considering the creep and the results from the conventional analysis of the whole building under the total load from all self-weight and construction applied to the structure "in one go" shows that the cumulative effect on the deformation from the construction process and the creep effect need to be considered in analyzing the deformation of Shanghai World Financial Center, and the super-high rise buildings suchlike. Finally, the simulation results correlate well with the monitoring results-a proof of the feasibility and the validity of this paper.展开更多

Secondly, it explores financial derivative system in global economy. Thirdly, this study explores world money notion of M. Keynes. Keynes presented world money concept in 1944, in Bretton Woods Talk. His notion may be applied through global GDP today. Assumption of this study is that world money may finance debt payment of nations, and it finances balanced payment deficit of economies, because capitalism of modem economy requires money to run business system. Uysal (2016) presented World money Notion and 2008 Process in conference of 1 lth International Silkroad in Tbilisi, Georgia. Uysal (2015, 2016) discussed World Money concept in the conference with assumption that it may increase demand in global economy. This study is based on case study, which is 2008 Global Crise. Because its effect continues worldwide.展开更多
