Thermodynamics of Chaotic Systems: An Introduction (Cambridge Nonlinear Science Series) (Updated Edition) by Christian Beck, Friedrich Schögl, Beck/Schlogl Paperback, 308 Pages, Published 1995 ISBN-10: 0-521-48451-0 / 0521484510 ISBN-13: 978-0-521-48451-0 / 9780521484510 This book deals with the various thermodynamic concepts used for the analysis of nonlinear dynamical systems. The most important invariants used to characterise chaotic systems are introduced in a way that stresses the interconnections with thermodynamics and statistical mechanics. Among the subject |
