Overview

This volume describes the use of simple analog circuits to study nonlinear dynamics, chaos and stochastic resonance. The circuit experiments that are described are mostly easy and inexpensive to reproduce, and yet these experiments come from the forefront of nonlinear dynamics research. The individual chapters describe why analog circuits are so useful for studying nonlinear dynamics, and include theoretical as well as experimental results from some of the leading researchers in the field. Most of the articles contain some tutorial sections for the less experienced readers.The audience for this book includes researchers in nonlinear dynamics, chaos and statistical physics as well as electrical engineering, and graduate and advanced undergraduate students in these fields.Contents: Cirucits and Theory: Nonlinear Dynamics in Driven and Autonomous Electronic Circuits: From Period Doubling to Systems of Multiple Oscillators (P S Linsay) Symmetric Dynamics and Electronic Circuits (P Ashwin) Bifurcations and Chaos in Oscillator with Inertial Nonlinearity (V S Anischenko & V V Astakhov) Bifurcations and Chaotic States in Forced Oscillatory Circuits Containing Saturable Inductors (T Yoshinaga & H Kawakami) A BiCMOS Binary Hysteresis Chaos Generator (S Ahmadi & R W Newcomb) Experimenting with Chaos in Electronic Circuits (N F Rul'kov & A R Volkovskii) Applications of Circuits: Analog Simulations of Chaotic and Stochastic Systems (L Fronzoni & F Moss) Synchronizing Chaotic Circuits (T L Carroll & L M Pecora) Analysis, Synthesis and Applications of Self-Synchronizing Chaotic Systems (K M Cuomo & A V Oppenheim) Chua's Circuit: Chaotic Phenomena and Applications (L Pivka et al.)
