Features: Chaos is a very active and widely applicable field in nonlinear science. This book starts by exploring why simple systems can produce complex behavior, and uses easy-to-understand language to provide an in-depth yet accessible discussion on the crucial concepts in nonlinear dynamics, including bifurcation, chaos, fractals, and strange attractors, as well as their interrelationships. It then introduces the main principles and methods of chaos and chaos control in the heart system. Finally, it elucidates the phase space model for long-term prediction based on chaos theory, as well as the applications of chaos in secure communication, neural networks, and economics.
