Characterization of the spatial complex behavior and transition to chaos in flow systems
نویسنده
چکیده
We introduce a “spatial” Lyapunov exponent to characterize the complex behavior of non chaotic but convectively unstable flow systems. This complexity is of spatial type and is due to sensitivity to the boundary conditions. We show that there exists a relation between the spatial-complexity index we define and the comoving Lyapunov exponents. In these systems the transition to chaos, i.e. the appearing of a positive Lyapunov exponent, can take place in two different ways. In the first one (from neither chaotic nor spatially complex behavior to chaos) one has the typical scenario; that is, as the system size grows up the spectrum of the Lyapunov exponents gives rise to a density. In the second one (when the chaos develops from a convectively unstable situation) one observes only a finite number of positive Lyapunov exponents. PACS: 05.45.+b Typeset using REVTEX

Complexity Theory and Collagist Approach in Geomorphic Systems Introduction Now, scientists know the world as complex systems that predict consequences of it is so difficult. In this situation, the systems operated by rotation manner in which chaos is order and discipline leads to chaos. Nowadays, simple idea of how the world work change and convert to complex and paradoxical idea. This i...
متن کاملConservative chaotic flow generated via a pseudo-linear system
Analysis of nonlinear autonomous systems has been a popular field of study in recent decades. As an interesting nonlinear behavior, chaotic dynamics has been intensively investigated since Lorenz discovered the first physical evidence of chaos in his famous equations. Although many chaotic systems have been ever reported in the literature, a systematic and qualitative approach for chaos generat...

Walking, as an important transportation mode, plays a large part in urban transportation systems. This mode is of great importance for planners and decision-makers because of its impact on environmental and health aspects of communities. However, this mode is so complex in nature that makes it difficult to study or model. On the other hand, chaos theory studies complex dynamical nonlinear syste...
متن کاملDesign and Simulation of Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference Based Controller for Chaotic Lorenz System
Chaos is a nonlinear behavior that shows chaotic and irregular responses to internal and external stimuli in dynamic systems. This behavior usually appears in systems that are highly sensitive to initial condition. In these systems, stabilization is a highly considerable tool for eliminating aberrant behaviors. In this paper, the problem of stabilization and tracking the chaos are investigated....
متن کاملRiver Discharge Time Series Prediction by Chaos Theory
The application of chaos theory in hydrology has been gaining considerable interest in recent years.Based on the chaos theory, the random seemingly series can be attributed to deterministic rules. Thedynamic structures of the seemingly complex processes, such as river flow variations, might be betterunderstood using nonlinear deterministic chaotic models than the stochastic ones. In this paper,...
