About this title

Synopsis

It has been discovered over the past few decades that even motions in simple systems can have complex and surprising properties. This volume provides a clear introduction to these chaotic phenomena, based on geometrical interpretations and simple arguments, without the need for prior in-depth scientific and mathematical knowledge. Richly illustrated throughout, its examples are taken from classical mechanics whose elementary laws are familiar to the reader. In order to emphasize the general features of chaos, the most important relations are also given in simple mathematical forms, independent of any mechanical interpretation.

Book Description

Chaotic Dynamics provides a clear introduction to chaotic phenomena, based on geometrical interpretations and simple arguments, without requiring prior in-depth scientific and mathematical knowledge. Richly illustrated throughout, examples are taken from classical mechanics whose elementary laws are familiar to the reader. The most important relations are also given in simple mathematical forms, independent of any mechanical interpretation. It includes a broad range of potential applications, ranging from everyday phenomena through engineering and environmental problems to astronomical aspects. This book is primarily intended for undergraduate students in science, engineering, and mathematics.
