World Scientific Series on Nonlinear Science, Series A - Vol. 12

ATTRACTORS OF QUASIPERIODICALLY FORCED SYSTEMS

by Tomasz Kapitaniak & Jerzy Wojewoda (Tech. Univ. Lodz, Poland)

This book discusses the influence of quasiperiodic force on dynamical system. With this type of forcing, different types of attractors are possible, for example, strange nonchaotic attractors which have some unusual properties.

The main part of this book is based on the authors' recent works, but it also presents the results which are the combined achievements of many investigators.


Contents:

  • Introduction
  • Attractors of Dynamical Systems
  • Strange Nonchaotic Attractors
  • Inhibition of Chaotic Behaviour in Coupled Geophysical Models
  • Experimental System with Dry Friction


Readership: Scientists interested in chaos and nonlinear science.


"... useful as a first reading in this particular subfield of nonlinear dynamics."
