Synchronization And Control Of Chaos: An Introduction For Scientists And Engineers

Description:

This book presents a comprehensive overview of the research and latest developments in the field of the dynamics of coupled and driven chaotic oscillators, aimed at a wide audience. Since 1990, there has been very active research devoted to the field, culminating in a considerable body of knowledge, while active research continues.

The results presented in the book will be valuable for scientific analysis and explanation in various different scientific disciplines, with potential applications in medicine and engineering. The contents include a selection of the most basic theoretical results, as well as experiments and applications presented at a mathematical level suited to readers working in non-hard sciences. It will also be of interest to physicists and mathematicians looking for an introduction to the field.
