By making use of the principles of systems science, the scientific
community can explain many complicated matters of the world and
shed new light on unsettled problems. Each real science has its own
particular methodology for not only qualitative but also
quantitative analyses, so it is important to understand the organic
whole of systems research with operable mathematical methods.
Systems Science: Methodological Approaches presents a mathematical
explanation of systems science, giving readers a complete technical
formulation of different systemic laws. It enables them to use a
unified methodology to attack different problems that are hard, if
not impossible, for modern science to handle. Following a brief
history of systems science, the book explores: Basic concepts,
characteristics, properties, and classifications of general systems
Nonlinear systems dynamics and the theory of catastrophe
Dissipative structures and synergistics Studies of chaos, including
logistic mapping, phase space reconstruction, Lyapunov exponents,
and chaos of general single relation systems Different aspects and
concepts of fractals, including a presentation of L systems
analysis and design Complex systems and complexity, with a
discussion of how the phenomena of "three" and complexity are
related, and how various cellular automata can be constructed to
generate useful simulations and figurative patterns Complex
adaptive systems and open complex giant systems, with introduction
of the yoyo model and practical applications Complex networks and
related concepts and methods The book concludes with several case
studies that demonstrate how various concepts and the logic of
systems can be practically applied to resolve real-life problems,
such as the prediction of natural disasters. The book will be
useful in directing future research and applications of systems
science on a commonly accepted platform and playground.
