  2. Lorenz system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorenz_system

    By comparison, based on the concept of attractor coexistence within the generalized Lorenz model [26] and the original Lorenz model ([36] [37]), Shen and his co-authors [35] [38] proposed a revised view that “weather possesses both chaos and order with distinct predictability”. The revised view, which is a build-up of the conventional view ...

  3. Chaos theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos_theory

    Chaos theory (or chaology [1]) is an interdisciplinary area of scientific study and branch of mathematics. ... Lorenz equations used to generate plots for the y variable.

  4. Butterfly effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_effect

    In chaos theory, the butterfly effect is the sensitive dependence on initial conditions in which a small change in one state of a deterministic nonlinear system can result in large differences in a later state. The term is closely associated with the work of the mathematician and meteorologist Edward Norton Lorenz.

  5. Edward Norton Lorenz - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Norton_Lorenz

    Lorenz was born in 1917 in West Hartford, Connecticut. [5] He acquired an early love of science from both sides of his family. His father, Edward Henry Lorenz (1882-1956), majored in mechanical engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and his maternal grandfather, Lewis M. Norton, developed the first course in chemical engineering at MIT in 1888.

  6. Malkus waterwheel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malkus_waterwheel

    The Malkus waterwheel, also referred to as the Lorenz waterwheel or chaotic waterwheel, [1] is a mechanical model that exhibits chaotic dynamics. Its motion is governed by the Lorenz equations. While classical waterwheels rotate in one direction at a constant speed, the Malkus waterwheel exhibits chaotic motion where its rotation will speed up ...

    Source codes for nonlinear systems such as the Hénon map, the Lorenz equations, a delay differential equation and so on are introduced. [16] [17] [18] For the calculation of Lyapunov exponents from limited experimental data, various methods have been proposed.
