Description
Contains an edited collection of papers by experts from all
disciplines of chaos which are the result of the International
Workshop on Applications of Chaos, sponsored by the Electric Power
Research Institute. Focusing on the actual and potential
methodologies of the latest investigations in chaos dynamics,
topics presented here run the gamut from the dynamics of
electrocardiograph information and the instability of conveyor
belts to the time series modeling and control of chaos.
