La 4e de couverture indique : "Development of new sensors and digital processors has provided opportunity for identification of nonlinear systems. Vibration measurements have become standard for predicting and monitoring machinery in industry. Parameter Identification and Monito…
L'ouvrage étudie les instabilités classiques (Rayleigh-Bénard, Bénard-Marangoni, Couette Taylor, etc.) ainsi que des instabilités moins classiques (films de savons, films visqueux, ondes non linéaires, etc.). Pour chaque nouvelle notion, l'auteur s'est attaché à donner une illus…
Optimal growth theory studies the problem of efficient resource allocation over time, a fundamental concern of economic research. Since the 1970s, the techniques of nonlinear dynamical systems have become a vital tool in optimal growth theory, illuminating dynamics and demonstra…
Almost all the many recent studies on chaos have been concerned with classical systems. This book, however, is one of the first to deal with quantum chaos, the natural progression from such classical systems. In this book the author deals with three major issues in quantum chaos…
Internal wave dynamics in lakes (and oceans) is an important physical component of geophysical fluid mechanics of 'quiescent' water bodies of the Globe. The formation of internal waves requires seasonal stratification of the water bodies and generation by (primarily) wind forces…
