Description
Chaotic Dynamics: An Introduction by Gregory L. Baker and Jerry P. Gollub provides a clear and concise introduction to chaos and nonlinear dynamics at the undergraduate level. First published in 1996, this revised edition has been widely praised for its clarity of writing and effective presentation of basic ideas. The book's focus on the damped, driven pendulum as a primary model remains unchanged, while new material has been added on analyzing and characterizing chaotic data, and applications of chaos. This updated edition is suitable for courses on chaos in physics and engineering at second- and third-year level. With its unique approach to presenting complex concepts, Chaotic Dynamics offers a valuable resource for students and educators seeking to understand the principles of chaotic dynamics.
