The neutron density is one of the most important dynamical parameters in a reactor. It is directly related to the control and stability of the reactor power. Any change in applied reactivity and some of dynamical parameters in the reactor causes a change in the neutron density. Lyapunov exponent method is a powerful tool for investigating the range of stability and the transient behavior of the...

different discrete models of population dynamics of certain insects have been investigated under various feasible conditions within the framework of nonlinear dynamics. evolutionary phenomena are discussed through bifurcation analysis leading to chaos. some tools of nonlinear dynamics, such as lyapunov characteristic exponents (lce), lyapunov numbers, correlation dimension, etc. are calculated ...

In this paper, chaotic dynamic and nonlinear control in a glucose-insulin system in types I diabetic patients and a healthy person have been investigated. Chaotic analysis methods of the blood glucose system include Lyapunov exponent and power spectral density based on the time series derived from the clinical data. Wolf's algorithm is used to calculate the Lyapunov exponent, which positive val...
