Self-organized criticality is an attractive model for human brain dynamics, but there has been
little direct evidence for its existence in large-scale systems measured by neuroimaging. In …

The El Niño—Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycle is modeled as a low-order chaotic process
driven by the seasonal cycle. A simple model suggests that the equatorial Pacific ocean …

Recently research has shown that many simple nonlinear deterministic systems can behave
in an apparently unpredictable and chaotic manner. This realization has broad implications …

Technical problems often lead to differential equations with piecewise-smooth right-hand
sides. Problems in mechanical engineering, for instance, violate the requirements of …

This book is a tool for the theoretical and numerical investigation of nonlinear dynamical
systems modeled by means of ordinary differential and difference equations. The work is …

In the? rst edition of this book (publishedby Kluwer Academic in November 2000) the
methodology of dynamical systems theory was introduced and appli-cations of this theory to …

The Influence of a Weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation on ENSO in:
Journal of Climate Volume 20 Issue 19 (2007) Jump to Content Jump to Main Navigation …

The nature of coordination changes and stability features in the relative phase dynamics of
the trunk were examined in seven healthy subjects, while walking velocity on a treadmill was …

In the 17th century the Dutch physicist Christian Huyghens observed that two clocks hanging
back to back on the wall tend to synchronize their motion. This phenomenon is known as …

This book develops deterministic chaos and fractals from the standpoint of iterated maps, but
the method of analysis and choice of emphasis make it very different from all other books in …
