Fractals, multifractals, and thermodynamics: an introductory review

T Tél - Zeitschrift für Naturforschung A, 1988 - degruyter.com
The basic concept of fractals and multifractals are introduced for pedagogical purposes, and
the present status is reviewed. The emphasis is put on illustrative examples with simple …

Estimating fractal dimension

J Theiler - JOSA a, 1990 - opg.optica.org
Fractals arise from a variety of sources and have been observed in nature and on computer
screens. One of the exceptional characteristics of fractals is that they can be described by a …

Recent developments in chaotic time series analysis

YC Lai, N Ye - International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos, 2003 - World Scientific
In this paper, two issues are addressed:(1) the applicability of the delay-coordinate
embedding method to transient chaotic time series analysis, and (2) the Hilbert transform …

This book is a monograph on chaos in dissipative systems written for those working in the
physical sciences. Emphasis is on symbolic description of the dynamics and various …

[图书][B] Chaos: from theory to applications

AA Tsonis - 2012 - books.google.com
Based on chaos theory two very important points are clear:(I) random looking aperiodic
behavior may be the product of determinism, and (2) nonlinear problems should be treated …

Unstable periodic orbits and the dimensions of multifractal chaotic attractors

C Grebogi, E Ott, JA Yorke - Physical Review A, 1988 - APS
The probability measure generated by typical chaotic orbits of a dynamical system can have
an arbitrarily fine-scaled interwoven structure of points with different singularity scalings …

[图书][B] Applied symbolic dynamics and chaos

B Hao, W Zheng - 1998 - World Scientific
Human's observation and measurement of natural phenomena are always carried out with

Topological and metric properties of Hénon-type strange attractors

P Cvitanović, GH Gunaratne, I Procaccia - Physical Review A, 1988 - APS
We use the set of all periodic points of Hénon-type mappings to develop a theory of the
topological and metric properties of their attractors. The topology of a Hénon-type attractor is …
