  2. Nonlinear narrative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonlinear_narrative

    Nonlinear narrative, disjointed narrative, or disrupted narrative is a narrative technique where events are portrayed, for example, out of chronological order or in other ways where the narrative does not follow the direct causality pattern of the events featured, such as parallel distinctive plot lines, dream immersions or narrating another story inside the main plot-line.

  3. Phase plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_plane

    In applied mathematics, in particular the context of nonlinear system analysis, a phase plane is a visual display of certain characteristics of certain kinds of differential equations; a coordinate plane with axes being the values of the two state variables, say (x, y), or (q, p) etc. (any pair of variables).

  4. Nonlinear regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonlinear_regression

    In statistics, nonlinear regression is a form of regression analysis in which observational data are modeled by a function which is a nonlinear combination of the model parameters and depends on one or more independent variables. The data are fitted by a method of successive approximations (iterations).

  5. Current–voltage characteristic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current–voltage...

    A curved I–V line represents a nonlinear resistance, such as a diode. In this type the resistance varies with the applied voltage or current. Negative resistance vs positive resistance: If the I–V curve has a positive slope (increasing to the right) throughout, it represents a positive resistance.

  6. Duffing equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duffing_equation

    Duffing oscillator plot, containing phase ... is a non-linear second-order differential equation used to model certain damped and ... The same plot as a 3D diagram.

  7. Logistic map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_map

    In the logistic map, r is a parameter, and x is a variable. It is a map in the sense that it maps a configuration or phase space to itself (in this simple case the space is one dimensional in the variable x), it can be interpreted as a tool to get next position in the configuration space after one time step.

  8. Nonlinear control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonlinear_control

    Nonlinear control theory is the area of control theory which deals with systems that are nonlinear, time-variant, or both. Control theory is an interdisciplinary branch of engineering and mathematics that is concerned with the behavior of dynamical systems with inputs, and how to modify the output by changes in the input using feedback ...

  9. Nyquist stability criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyquist_stability_criterion

    The Nyquist plot for () = + + with s = jω.. In control theory and stability theory, the Nyquist stability criterion or Strecker–Nyquist stability criterion, independently discovered by the German electrical engineer Felix Strecker [] at Siemens in 1930 [1] [2] [3] and the Swedish-American electrical engineer Harry Nyquist at Bell Telephone Laboratories in 1932, [4] is a graphical technique ...
