Abstract

Aims and Objectives

• To introduce first-order ODEs in three variables

• To plot phase portraits and chaotic attractors

• To identify chaos

On completion of this chapter, the reader should be able to

• construct phase portraits for linear systems in three dimensions

• use MATLAB to plot phase portraits and time series for nonlinear systems

• identify chaotic solutions

• interpret the solutions to modeling problems taken from various scientific disciplines, and in particular chemical kinetics, electric circuits, and meteorology.
