This textbook is aimed at newcomers to nonlinear dynamics and chaos, especially students taking a first course in the subject. The presentation stresses analytical methods, concrete examples, and geometric intuition. The theory is developed systematically, starting with first-order differential equations and their bifurcations, followed by phase plane analysis, limit cycles and their bifurcations, and culminating with the Lorenz equations, chaos, iterated maps, period doubling, renormalization, fractals, and strange attractors.

A unique feature of the book is its emphasis on applications. These include mechanical vibrations, lasers, biological rhythms, superconducting circuits, insect outbreaks, chemical oscillators, genetic control systems, chaotic waterwheels, and even a technique for using chaos to send secret messages. In each case, the scientific background is explained at an elementary level and closely integrated with mathematical theory.

In the twenty years since the first edition of this book appeared, the ideas and techniques of nonlinear dynamics and chaos have found application to such exciting fields as systems biology, evolutionary game theory, and socio-physics. This second edition includes new exercises on these cutting-edge developments, on topics as varied as curiosities of visual perception and the tumultuous love dynamics in Gone with the Wind.

Find Formlen

- vores egen formelsamling serie - udarbejdet af studerende for studerende og rettet mod dit DTU studie.

 

Find Formlen

 

Serien Find Formlen er udarbejdet af studerende der er langt i studiet og har været hjælpelærere i flere semestre og derfor præcist ved hvad der skal til.


De indeholder de vigtigste og hyppigst forekommende formler, som anvendes i den første del af studiet, og som det er nyttigt at have samlet i én overskuelig og let anvendelig oversigt.
