Chaotic Dynamics provides a clear introduction to chaotic phenomena, based on geometrical interpretations and simple arguments, without requiring prior in-depth scientific and mathematical knowledge. Richly illustrated throughout, examples are taken from classical mechanics whose elementary laws are familiar to the reader. The most important relations are also given in simple mathematical forms, independent of any mechanical interpretation. It includes a broad range of potential...
More DescriptionChaotic Dynamics provides a clear introduction to chaotic phenomena, based on geometrical interpretations and simple arguments, without requiring prior in-depth scientific and mathematical knowledge. Richly illustrated throughout, examples are taken from classical mechanics whose elementary laws are familiar to the reader. The most important relations are also given in simple mathematical forms, independent of any mechanical interpretation. It includes a broad range of potential applications, ranging from everyday phenomena through engineering and environmental problems to astronomical aspects. This book is primarily intended for undergraduate students in science, engineering, and mathematics.
