  2. Nonlinearity (journal) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonlinearity_(journal)

    Nonlinearity is a peer-reviewed scientific journal published by IOP Publishing and the London Mathematical Society. The journal publishes papers on nonlinear mathematics, mathematical physics , experimental physics , theoretical physics and other areas in the sciences where nonlinear phenomena are of fundamental importance.

  3. Nonlinear system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonlinear_system

    In mathematics and science, a nonlinear system (or a non-linear system) is a system in which the change of the output is not proportional to the change of the input. [1] [2] Nonlinear problems are of interest to engineers, biologists, [3] [4] [5] physicists, [6] [7] mathematicians, and many other scientists since most systems are inherently nonlinear in nature. [8]

  4. Nonlinearity (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonlinearity_(disambiguation)

    Nonlinear system, in mathematics, represents a system whose behavior is not expressible as a linear function of its descriptors. A nonlinear X-wave (NLX) is a multi-dimensional wave that can travel without distortion. Nonlinearity is a peer-reviewed scientific journal of the Institute of Physics and the London Mathematical Society.

  5. Mathematical model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_model

    Linear vs. nonlinear. If all the operators in a mathematical model exhibit linearity, the resulting mathematical model is defined as linear. A model is considered to be nonlinear otherwise. The definition of linearity and nonlinearity is dependent on context, and linear models may have nonlinear expressions in them.

  6. Nonlinear partial differential equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonlinear_partial...

    In mathematics and physics, a nonlinear partial differential equation is a partial differential equation with nonlinear terms. They describe many different physical systems, ranging from gravitation to fluid dynamics, and have been used in mathematics to solve problems such as the Poincaré conjecture and the Calabi conjecture .

  7. Nonlinear algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonlinear_algebra

    Nonlinear algebra is the nonlinear analogue to linear algebra, generalizing notions of spaces and transformations coming from the linear setting. [1] Algebraic geometry is one of the main areas of mathematical research supporting nonlinear algebra, while major components coming from computational mathematics support the development of the area ...

  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 ...
