Chaotic Dynamics by Gregory L Baker

Chaotic Dynamics by Gregory L Baker

In this short quantitative introduction, the authors illustrate all the main features of chaos, using the damped, driven pendulum as the primary model. It includes analytic and computer exercises with which the reader may duplicate and expand upon the simulations demonstrated in the book.

involvement in 2007. His scholarly interests have included stochastic processes (as a consultant), chaotic dynamics, and the relationship between religion and science. He has authored or co-authored more than sixty publications, many of which have appeared in peer reviewed journals. His books
include the best selling Chaotic Dynamics: an Introduction, a technical/cultural book on the pendulum The Pendulum: a case study in physics, and Religion and Science: from Swedenborg to chaotic dynamics. Baker is a member of the American Physical Society and the American Association of Physics
