nonlinear dynamics
Definition
- Nonlinear dynamics refers to a broad range of behavior that can occur with many varieties of mathematical models that are structured with respect to time. Nonlinear dynamics can occur with both linear and nonlinear algebraic specifications, as with dy/dt =ay or dy/dt =ay2, respectively, where the parameter “a” is a constant.
