A plot of the Lorenz attractor for values r = 28, σ = 10, b = 8/3 An animation of a double-rod pendulum at an intermediate energy showing chaotic behavior. Starting the pendulum from a slightly different initial condition would result in a vastly different trajectory. The double-rod pendulum is one of the simplest dynamical systems with chaotic solutions.In some cases, the last two properties above have been shown to actually imply sensitivity to initial conditions. [23] [24] In the discrete-time case, this is true for all continuous maps on metric spaces. [25] In these cases, while it is often the most practically significant property, "sensitivity to initial conditions" need not be stated in the definition. As suggested in Lorenz's book entitled The Essence of Chaos, published in 1993, [5] "sensitive dependence can serve as an acceptable definition of chaos". In the same book, Lorenz defined the butterfly effect as: "The phenomenon that a small alteration in the state of a dynamical system will cause subsequent states to differ greatly from the states that would have followed without the alteration." The above definition is consistent with the sensitive dependence of solutions on initial conditions (SDIC). An idealized skiing model was developed to illustrate the sensitivity of time-varying paths to initial positions. [5] A predictability horizon can be determined before the onset of SDIC (i.e., prior to significant separations of initial nearby trajectories). [29] principles of the highest morality.

My son has ADD and was put on academic probation in his freshman year of college. His pediatrician recommended Leslie’s organizing and coaching services. Her practical knowledge of the needs of students with ADD has helped him wrap his arms around his rigorous course load, manage his time, organize tasks and teach him new study habits. Within one semester, my son was off academic probation and achieved his highest GPA so far!” Chaos theory concerns deterministic systems whose behavior can, in principle, be predicted. Chaotic systems are predictable for a while and then 'appear' to become random. The amount of time for which the behavior of a chaotic system can be effectively predicted depends on three things: how much uncertainty can be tolerated in the forecast, how accurately its current state can be measured, and a time scale depending on the dynamics of the system, called the Lyapunov time. Some examples of Lyapunov times are: chaotic electrical circuits, about 1 millisecond; weather systems, a few days (unproven); the inner solar system, 4 to 5 million years. [18] In chaotic systems, the uncertainty in a forecast increases exponentially with elapsed time. Hence, mathematically, doubling the forecast time more than squares the proportional uncertainty in the forecast. This means, in practice, a meaningful prediction cannot be made over an interval of more than two or three times the Lyapunov time. When meaningful predictions cannot be made, the system appears random.
