Description for Chaos and Nonlinear Dynamics
Paperback. Presenting a comprehensive introduction to the scientific field of nonlinear dynamics, this book is useful for students, scientists, and engineers. It treats almost all the important areas in the field and provides a bibliography of applications in the various fields of science, social science, economics, and even the arts. Num Pages: 672 pages, numerous figures and diagrams. BIC Classification: PBKJ; PBWR; PBWS; TGMD. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 235 x 159 x 36. Weight in Grams: 966.
Chaos and Nonlinear Dynamics introduces students, scientists, and engineers to the full range of activity in the rapidly growing field on nonlinear dynamics. Using a step-by-step introduction to dynamics and geometry in state space as the central focus of understanding nonlinear dynamics, this book includes a thorough treatment of both differential equation models and iterated map models (including a derivation of the famous Feigenbaum numbers). It is the only book at this level to include the increasingly important field of pattern formation and a survey of the controversial questions of quantum chaos. Important tools such as Lyapunov exponents and fractal ... Read more
