Abstract

Recently, the study of chaos is attracting attention, and a wide range of academic fields is actively involved. On the other hand, Aihara proposed the term “chaos engineering” to describe the application of chaos theory for engineering purposes, and its possibilities have been demonstrated. Examples of applications reported so far include “Oil Fan Heaters (Sanyo Electric Co., Ltd.),” “Air-conditioners and Dish Washing Dryers (Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.),” “Washing Machines (Goldstar Co., Ltd.; Korea)” and other home appliances and “Application to Health Care (Computer Convenience).” However, industrially, there has been only one application which is the “Tap Water Demand Prediction (Meidensha Corporation).” This paper first reviews the history of chaos research. Next, deterministic chaos is described. Time series forecasting and fault diagnosis are discussed as prospective industrial applications, and the related methodology is explained using practical examples.
