The above calculations were carried out for a variety of loads in the range 10 --
95% and our results indicate that
- Load in the range 10% -- 20%: Average age waveforms are aperiodic but
not self-similar
- Load in the range 30% -- 70%: Waveforms display self-similarity with
- Load in the range 80% -- 99%: Waveforms contain a strong periodic
component and calculation of H becomes unreliable [Mandelbrot 1969]
