Handbook of Chaos Control 2nd Edition by Eckehard Schöll (PDF)

Description

This long-awaited revised second edition of the standard reference on the subject has been considerably expanded to include such recent developments as novel control schemes, control of chaotic space-time patterns, control of noisy nonlinear systems, and communication with chaos, as well as promising new directions in research. The contributions from leading international scientists active in the field provide a comprehensive overview of our current level of knowledge on chaos control and its applications in physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, and engineering. In addition, they show the overlap with the traditional field of control theory in the engineering community. An interdisciplinary approach of interest to scientists and engineers working in a number of areas.

In 1971 he received his doctorate and in 1976 he was appointed Professor at the University of Frankfurt/Main in Germany. He was a visiting professor at the Weizmann-Institute of Science in Israel and at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, USA. Professor Schuster works on the dynamical behaviour of complex adaptive systems and authored and coauthored several books in this field. His book “Deterministic Chaos” which was also published at Wiley-VCH, has been translated into five languages. Eckehard Scholl received his M.Sc. in physics from the University of Tuebingen, Germany, and his Ph.D. degree in applied mathematics from the University of Southampton, England. In 1989 he was appointed to a professorship in theoretical physics at the Technical University of Berlin, where he still teaches. His research interests are nonlinear dynamic systems, including nonlinear spatio-temporal dynamics, chaos, pattern formation, noise, and control. He authored and coauthored several books in his field. Professor Scholl was awarded the “Champion in teaching” prize by the Technical University of Berlin in 1997 and a Visiting Professorship by the London Mathematical Society in 2004. Read more

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐A few years ago, researchers studying chaos came to a realisation that it might be possible to apply some elements of control systems onto it, taking advantage of the intrinsic chaotic nature to minimise the amount of energy input needed.In essence, researchers were trying to take the paradigm of a butterfly flapping its wings and affecting a cyclone an ocean away, and use it. The book seems to have a well chosen summary of such research intents, applied across various fields. Progress has been good; though currently no headline grabbers.While it does provide a quick introduction to chaos theory at the start of the book, you might need prior acquaintance. It is not the aim of the book to teach you chaos theory but to apply it.
