Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos
With Applications to Physics, Biology, Chemistry, and Engineering
Ranked #7 in Chaos Theory, Ranked #21 in Classical Mechanics — see more rankings.
This textbook is aimed at newcomers to nonlinear dynamics and chaos. The presentation stresses analytical methods, concrete examples, and geometric intuition. 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.
