  2. Chaos theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos_theory

    A recent review of Lorenz's model [99] [100] progression spanning from 1960 to 2008 revealed his adeptness at employing varied physical systems to illustrate chaotic phenomena. These systems encompassed Quasi-geostrophic systems, the Conservative Vorticity Equation, the Rayleigh-Bénard Convection Equations, and the Shallow Water Equations.

  3. List of chaotic maps - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chaotic_maps

    Chaotic maps and iterated functions often generate fractals. Some fractals are studied as objects themselves, as sets rather than in terms of the maps that generate them. This is often because there are several different iterative procedures that generate the same fractal.

  4. Control of chaos - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_of_chaos

    In the OGY method, small, wisely chosen, kicks are applied to the system once per cycle, to maintain it near the desired unstable periodic orbit. [3] To start, one obtains information about the chaotic system by analyzing a slice of the chaotic attractor. This slice is a Poincaré section. After the information about the section has been ...

  5. Lorenz system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorenz_system

    The Lorenz system is a system of ordinary differential equations first studied by mathematician and meteorologist Edward Lorenz. It is notable for having chaotic solutions for certain parameter values and initial conditions. In particular, the Lorenz attractor is a set of chaotic solutions of the Lorenz

    Welcome at this page of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Systems. This page is open for everybody to edit. Feel free to do so. (For other questions ask Mdd). This article gives a list of images of systems, concerning the theory and practice of systems in science and society.

  7. Robert L. Devaney - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_L._Devaney

    Devaney is known for formulating a simple and widely used definition of chaotic systems, one that does not need advanced concepts such as measure theory. [8] In his 1989 book An Introduction to Chaotic Dynamical Systems, Devaney defined a system to be chaotic if it has sensitive dependence on initial conditions, it is topologically transitive (for any two open sets, some points from one set ...

  8. Arnold's cat map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arnold's_cat_map

    In mathematics, Arnold's cat map is a chaotic map from the torus into itself, named after Vladimir Arnold, who demonstrated its effects in the 1960s using an image of a cat, hence the name. [1] It is a simple and pedagogical example for hyperbolic toral automorphisms .

  9. Chaotic scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaotic_scattering

    Chaotic scattering is a branch of chaos theory dealing with scattering systems displaying a strong sensitivity to initial conditions. In a classical scattering system there will be one or more impact parameters , b , in which a particle is sent into the scatterer.
