Dynamical Systems with Applications using MATLAB® by Stephen Lynch
English | PDF(True) | 2004 | 458 Pages | ISBN : 0817643214 | 26.9 MB
Beginning with a tutorial guide to MATLAB®, the text thereafter is divided into two main areas. In Part I, both real and complex discrete dynamical systems are considered, with examples presented from population dynamics, nonlinear optics, and materials science. Part II includes examples from mechanical systems, chemical kinetics, electric circuits, economics, population dynamics, epidemiology, and neural networks. Common themes such as bifurcation, bistability, chaos, fractals, instability, multistability, periodicity, and quasiperiodicity run through several chapters. Chaos control and multifractal theories are also included along with an example of chaos synchronization. Some material deals with cutting-edge published research articles and provides a useful resource for open problems in nonlinear dynamical systems.

Readers are guided through theory via example, and the graphical MATLAB® interface. The Simulink® accessory is used to simulate real-world dynamical processes. Examples from: mechanics, electric circuits, economics, population dynamics, epidemiology, nonlinear optics, materials science, and neural networks. Over 330 illustrations, 300 examples, and exercises with solutions. Aimed at senior undergraduates, graduate students, and working scientists in various branches of engineering, applied mathematics, and the natural sciences.
