Node Accessibility Characterization of Radially-Grown Structures
<|reference_start|>Node Accessibility Characterization of Radially-Grown Structures: Complex systems have motivated continuing interest from the scientific community, leading to new concepts and methods. Growing systems represent a case of particular interest, as their topological, geometrical, and also dynamical properties change along time, as new elements are incorporated into the existing structure. In the present work, an approach is the case in which systems grown radially around some straight axis of reference, such as particle deposition on electrodes, or urban expansion along avenues, roads, coastline, or rivers, among several other possibilities. More specifically, we aim at characterizing the topological properties of simulated growing structures, which are represented as graphs, in terms of a measurement corresponding to the accessibility of each involved node. The incorporation of new elements (nodes and links) is performed preferentially to the angular orientation respectively to the reference axis. Several interesting results are reported, including the tendency of structures grown preferentially to the orientation normal to the axis to have smaller accessibility.<|reference_end|>
