NONLINEAR DYNAMICS AND CHAOS - PROCEEDINGS OF THE INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP

This book presents a unified picture of recent progress in diverse interdisciplinary problems of nonlinear dynamics and chaos. The major topics covered include waves, patterns and instabilities in spatially extended systems, coupled oscillations and neuronal systems, granular dynamics and complex systems, chaos control, and applications of chaos and nonlinear dynamics. The book will give researchers and graduate students interested in nonlinear dynamics a pointer on the future direction of this rapidly developing field.
