Sensitivity To Initial Conditions

The present paper deals with a general dynamical qualitative study of the rotational motion for cometary-type bodies submitted to gravitational torques. Numerical experiments of the evolution of comet nucleus attitude have been then performed, including the Sun and Jupiter's disturbing torques in the model. Results show small effects of the solar gravitational perturbation for Halley-type orbits. Only a very close-approach with Jupiter induces notable effects. The latter configuration presents some interesting sensitivity to initial conditions.

Magnetic Features

Numerical experiments on three-dimensional magnetoconvection in a stratified compressible layer reveal a range of different patterns, depending on the strength of the imposed magnetic field. As the field is decreased there is a transition from small-scale plumes, in the magnetically dominated regime, to large-scale vigorous plumes when the field is dominated by the motion. In the intermediate regime magnetic flux separates from the motion, so that there are almost field-free regions, with clusters of vigorous plumes, surrounded by regions where the Lorentz force is strong enough to control the dynamics. There is a range of field strengths where either small-scale plumes or flux-separated solutions can persist, depending on initial conditions for the computation. These results can be related to magnetic features at the surface of the Sun.

Chaotic systems behavior attracts many researchers in the field of image encryption. The major advantage of using chaos as the basis for developing a crypto-system is due to its sensitivity to initial conditions and parameter tunning as well as the random-like behavior which resembles the main ingredients of a good cipher namely the confusion and diffusion properties. In this article, we present a new scheme based on the synchronization of dual chaotic systems namely Lorenz and Chen chaotic systems and prove that those chaotic maps can be completely synchronized with other under suitable conditions and specific parameters that make a new addition to the chaotic based encryption systems. This addition provides a master-slave configuration that is utilized to construct the proposed dual synchronized chaos-based cipher scheme. The common security analyses are performed to validate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. Based on all experiments and analyses, we can conclude that this scheme is secure, efficient, robust, reliable, and can be directly applied successfully for many practical security applications in insecure network channels such as the Internet

This paper describes the results of a study into the dynamic behavior of a magnetic bearing system. The research focuses attention on the influence of nonlinearities on the forced response of a two-degree-of-freedom rotating mass suspended by magnetic bearings and subject to rotating unbalance and feedback control. Geometric coupling between the degrees of freedom leads to a pair of nonlinear ordinary differential equations, which are then solved using both numerical simulation and approximate analytical techniques. The system exhibits a variety of interesting and somewhat unexpected phenomena including various amplitude driven bifurcational events, sensitivity to initial conditions, and the complete loss of stability associated with the escape from the potential well in which the system can be thought to be oscillating. An approximate criterion to avoid this last possibility is developed based on concepts of limiting the response of the system. The present paper may be considered as an extension to an earlier study by the same authors, which described the practical context of the work, free vibration, control aspects, and derivation of the mathematical model.

The present research studies the motion of a particle or a spacecraft that comes from an orbit around the Sun, which can be elliptic or hyperbolic, and that makes a passage close enough to the Earth such that it crosses its atmosphere. The idea is to measure the Sun-particle two-body energy before and after this passage in order to verify its variation as a function of the periapsis distance, angle of approach, and velocity at the periapsis of the particle. The full system is formed by the Sun, the Earth, and the particle or the spacecraft. The Sun and the Earth are in circular orbits around their center of mass and the motion is planar for all the bodies involved. The equations of motion consider the restricted circular planar three-body problem with the addition of the atmospheric drag. The initial conditions of the particle or spacecraft (position and velocity) are given at the periapsis of its trajectory around the Earth.

Sensitivity To Initial Conditions

Abstract Owning to complex properties of ergodicity, non-periodic ability and sensitivity to initial states, chaotic systems are widely used in cryptography. In this paper, we propose a sinusoidal--polynomial composite chaotic system (SPCCS), and prove that it satisfies Devaney's definition of chaos: the sensitivity to initial conditions, topological transitivity and density of periodic points. The experimental results show that the SPCCS has better unpredictability and more complex chaotic behavior than the classical chaotic maps. Furthermore, we provide a new image encryption algorithm combining pixel segmentation operation, block chaotic matrix confusing operation, and pixel diffusion operation with the SPCCS. Detailed simulation results verify effectiveness of the proposed image encryption algorithm.

Sensitivity To Initial Conditions

A comparison between the concept of boundedness on the one hand, and the theory of self-organized criticality (SOC) and the deterministic chaos on the other hand, is made. The focus is put on the methodological importance of the general frame through which an enormous class of empirical observations is viewed. The major difference between the concept of boundedness and the theory of self organized criticality is that under boundedness, the response comprises both specific and universal part, and thus a system has well defined “identity,” while SOC assumes response as a global invariant which has only universal properties. Unlike the deterministic chaos, the boundedness is free to explain the sensitivity to initial conditions independently from the mathematical object that generates them. Alongside, it turns out that the traditional approach to the deterministic chaos has its ample understanding under the concept of boundedness.

In this article we present a numerical study of the motion of asteroids in the 2:1 and 3:1 resonance with Jupiter. We integrated the equations of motion of the elliptic restricted 3-body problem for a great number of initial conditions within this 2 resonances for a time interval of 104 periods and for special cases even longer (which corresponds in the the Sun-Jupiter system to time intervals up to 106 years). We present our results in the form of 3-dimensional diagrams (initial a versus initial e, and in the z-axes the highest value of the eccentricity during the whole integration time). In the 3:1 resonance an eccentricity higher than 0.3 can lead to a close approach to Mars and hence to an escape from the resonance. Asteroids in the 2:1 resonance with Jupiter with eccentricities higher than 0.5 suffer from possible close approaches to Jupiter itself and then again this leads in general to an escape from the resonance. In both resonances we found possible regions of escape (chaotic regions), but only for initial eccentricities e > 0.15. The comparison with recent results show quite a good agreement for the structure of the 3:1 resonance. For motions in the 2:1 resonance our numeric results are in contradiction to others: high eccentric orbits are also found which may lead to escapes and consequently to a depletion of this resonant regions.

Sensitivity To Initial Conditions

We can think of forests as multiscale multispecies networks, constantly evolving toward a climax or potential natural community—the successional process-pattern of natural regeneration that exhibits sensitivity to initial conditions. This is why I look into forest succession in light of the Red Queen hypothesis and focus on the key aspects of ecological self-organisation: dynamical criticality, evolvability and intransitivity. The idea of the review is that forest climax should be associated with habitat dynamics driven by a large continuum of ecologically equivalent time scales, so that the same ecological conclusions could be drawn statistically from any scale. A synthesis of the literature is undertaken in order to (1) present the framework for assessing habitat dynamics and (2) present the types of successional trajectories based on tree regeneration mode in forest gaps. In general, there are four types of successional trajectories within the process-pattern of forest regeneration that exhibits sensitivity to initial conditions: advance reproduction specialists, advance reproduction generalists, early reproduction generalists and early reproduction specialists. A successional trajectory is an expression of a fractal connectivity among certain patterns of natural regeneration in the multiscale multispecies networks of landscape habitats. Theoretically, the organically derived measures of pattern diversity, integrity and complexity, determined by the rates of recruitment, growth and mortality of forest tree species, are the means to test the efficacy of specific interventions to avert the disturbance-related decline in forest regeneration. That is of relevance to the emerging field of biocomplexity research.

Sensitivity To Initial Conditions

A new global isotropy index (GII) is proposed to quantify the configuration independent isotropy of a robot's Jacobian or mass matrix. A new discrete global optimization algorithm is also proposed to optimize either the GII or some local measure without placing any conditions on the objective function. The algorithm is used to establish design guidelines and a globally optimal architecture for a planar haptic interface from both a kinematic and dynamic perspective and to choose the optimum geometry for a 6-DOF Stewart Platform. The algorithm demonstrates consistent effort reductons of up to six orders of magnitude over global searching with low sensitivity to initial conditions.
