Fractal structures in nonlinear dynamics

J Aguirre, RL Viana, MAF Sanjuán - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2009 - APS
In addition to the striking beauty inherent in their complex nature, fractals have become a
fundamental ingredient of nonlinear dynamics and chaos theory since they were defined in …

Chemical and biological activity in open flows: A dynamical system approach

T Tél, A de Moura, C Grebogi, G Károlyi - Physics reports, 2005 - Elsevier
Chemical and biological processes often take place in fluid flows. Many of them, like
environmental or microfluidical ones, generate filamentary patterns which have a fractal …

influenced by the long-range hydrodynamical interaction between them. Motion at high …

[HTML][HTML] Testing for basins of Wada

A Daza, A Wagemakers, MAF Sanjuán, JA Yorke - Scientific Reports, 2015 - nature.com
Nonlinear systems often give rise to fractal boundaries in phase space, hindering
predictability. When a single boundary separates three or more different basins of attraction …

Advection of active particles in open chaotic flows

Z Toroczkai, G Károlyi, Á Péntek, T Tél, C Grebogi - Physical review letters, 1998 - APS
We investigate the evolution of active particle ensembles in open chaotic flows. The active
processes of the type A+ B→ 2 B and A+ B→ 2 C are considered in the limit of weak …

Unpredictable behavior in the Duffing oscillator: Wada basins

J Aguirre, MAF Sanjuán - Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena, 2002 - Elsevier
This paper describes some numerical experiments giving evidence of Wada basin
boundaries for the Duffing oscillator. We suggest some mechanisms by which this fractal …
