Description for Chaotic Transitions in Deterministic and Stochastic Dynamical Systems: Applications of Melnikov Processes in Engineering, Physics, and Neuroscience
Paperback. The classical Melnikov method provides information on the behavior of deterministic planar systems that may exhibit transitions, that is it escapes from and captures into preferred regions of phase space. This book develops a unified treatment of deterministic and stochastic systems. Series: Princeton Series in Applied Mathematics. Num Pages: 240 pages, 94 line illus. BIC Classification: BGB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 234 x 163 x 14. Weight in Grams: 372.
The classical Melnikov method provides information on the behavior of deterministic planar systems that may exhibit transitions, i.e. escapes from and captures into preferred regions of phase space. This book develops a unified treatment of deterministic and stochastic systems that extends the applicability of the Melnikov method to physically realizable stochastic planar systems with additive, state-dependent, white, colored, or dichotomous noise. The extended Melnikov method yields the novel result that motions with transitions are chaotic regardless of whether the excitation is deterministic or stochastic. It explains the role in the occurrence of transitions of the characteristics of the system and ... Read more

Reviews for Chaotic Transitions in Deterministic and Stochastic Dynamical Systems: Applications of Melnikov Processes in Engineering, Physics, and Neuroscience
"Highly readable, elegant, and concise... Emil Simiu has succeeded in putting together a highly stimulating book that proposes a promising, unifying approach to various aspects of chaos theory. While encompassing a wide swath of topics, traditionally found only on scattered sources, the book is succinctly written, exhibiting a quality reserved to the best of review works."
