In the past few decades we have come to understand that even
motions in simple systems can have complex and surprising
properties. Chaotic Dynamics provides a clear introduction to these
chaotic phenomena, based on geometrical interpretations and simple
arguments, without the need for prior in-depth scientific and
mathematical knowledge. Richly illustrated throughout, examples are
taken from classical mechanics whose elementary laws are familiar
to the reader. In order to emphasize the general features of chaos,
the most important relations are also given in simple mathematical
forms, independent of any mechanical interpretation. A broad range
of potential applications are presented, ranging from everyday
phenomena through engineering and environmental problems to
astronomical aspects. Chaos occurs in a variety of scientific
disciplines, and proves to be the rule, not the exception. This
book is primarily intended for undergraduate students in science,
engineering, and mathematics.
