  2. Lorenz system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorenz_system

    The Lorenz attractor is difficult to analyze, but the action of the differential equation on the attractor is described by a fairly simple geometric model. [24] Proving that this is indeed the case is the fourteenth problem on the list of Smale's problems .

  3. Butterfly effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_effect

    A plot of Lorenz' strange attractor for values ρ=28, σ = 10, β = 8/3. The butterfly effect or sensitive dependence on initial conditions is the property of a dynamical system that, starting from any of various arbitrarily close alternative initial conditions on the attractor, the iterated points will become arbitrarily spread out from each other.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos_theory

    Lorenz equations used to generate plots for the y variable. The initial conditions for x and z were kept the same but those for y were changed between 1.001, 1.0001 and 1.00001. The values for , and were 45.91, 16 and 4 respectively. As can be seen from the graph, even the slightest difference in initial values causes significant changes after ...

  5. Attractor - Wikipedia

    Visual representation of a strange attractor. [1] Another visualization of the same 3D attractor is this video.Code capable of rendering this is available.. In the mathematical field of dynamical systems, an attractor is a set of states toward which a system tends to evolve, [2] for a wide variety of starting conditions of the system.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Mathematics/...

    The Lorenz attractor is an iconic example of a strange attractor in chaos theory.This three-dimensional fractal structure, resembling a butterfly or figure eight, reflects the long-term behavior of solutions to the Lorenz system, a set of three differential equations used by mathematician and meteorologist Edward N. Lorenz as a simple description of fluid circulation in a shallow layer (of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malkus_waterwheel

    The Malkus waterwheel, also referred to as the Lorenz waterwheel or chaotic waterwheel, [1] is a mechanical model that exhibits chaotic dynamics. Its motion is governed by the Lorenz equations. While classical waterwheels rotate in one direction at a constant speed, the Malkus waterwheel exhibits chaotic motion where its rotation will speed up ...
