Interdisciplinary Approaches to Nonlinear Complex Systems (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Haken, Hermann; Mikhailov, A.

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Nonlinear dynamics is now playing an important role in many disciplines. This book is intended to promote the process of "cross-fertilization" by which knowledge and ideas from one field find new applications and extensions in other areas. Leading experts from all branches of the natural sciences have contributed to this fasci nating collection.
