Towards a whole-cell modeling approach for synthetic biologyChaos - Tập 23 Số 2 - 2013
Oliver Purcell, Bonny Jain, Jonathan R. Karr, Markus W. Covert, Timothy K. Lu
Despite rapid advances over the last decade, synthetic biology lacks the
predictive tools needed to enable rational design. Unlike established
engineering disciplines, the engineering of synthetic gene circuits still relies
heavily on experimental trial-and-error, a time-consuming and inefficient
process that slows down the biological design cycle. This reliance on
experimental tuning is because c... hiện toàn bộ
Complex network analysis of water distribution systemsChaos - Tập 21 Số 1 - 2011
Alireza Yazdani, Paul Jeffrey
This paper explores a variety of strategies for understanding the formation,
structure, efficiency, and vulnerability of water distribution networks. Water
supply systems are studied as spatially organized networks for which the
practical applications of abstract evaluation methods are critically evaluated.
Empirical data from benchmark networks are used to study the interplay between
network stru... hiện toàn bộ
Nonlinearity in stock networksChaos - Tập 28 Số 8 - 2018
David Hartman, Jaroslav Hlinka
Stock networks, constructed from stock price time series, are a well-established
tool for the characterization of complex behavior in stock markets. Following
Mantegna’s seminal paper, the linear Pearson’s correlation coefficient between
pairs of stocks has been the usual way to determine network edges. Recently,
possible effects of nonlinearity on the graph-theoretical properties of such
networks... hiện toàn bộ
Semi-rational solutions of the third-type Davey-Stewartson equationChaos - Tập 27 Số 8 - 2017
Jiguang Rao, K. Porsezian, Jingsong He
General dark solitons and mixed solutions consisting of dark solitons and
breathers for the third-type Davey-Stewartson (DS-III) equation are derived by
employing the bilinear method. By introducing the two differential operators,
semi-rational solutions consisting of rogue waves, breathers, and solitons are
generated. These semi-rational solutions are given in terms of determinants
whose matrix e... hiện toàn bộ
A unifying definition of synchronization for dynamical systemsChaos - Tập 10 Số 2 - Trang 344-349 - 2000
Reggie Brown, Ljupčo Kocarev
We propose a unifying definition for synchronization between stationary finite
dimensional deterministic dynamical systems. By example, we show that the
synchronization phenomena discussed in the dynamical systems literature fits
within the framework of this definition, and discuss problems with previous
definitions of synchronization. We conclude with a discussion of possible
extensions of the de... hiện toàn bộ
How well-connected is the surface of the global ocean?Chaos - Tập 24 Số 3 - 2014
Gary Froyland, Robyn M. Stuart, Erik van Sebille
The Ekman dynamics of the ocean surface circulation is known to contain
attracting regions such as the great oceanic gyres and the associated garbage
patches. Less well-known are the extents of the basins of attractions of these
regions and how strongly attracting they are. Understanding the shape and extent
of the basins of attraction sheds light on the question of the strength of
connectivity of... hiện toàn bộ
A critical comparison of Lagrangian methods for coherent structure detectionChaos - Tập 27 Số 5 - 2017
Alireza Hadjighasem, Mohammad Farazmand, Daniel Blazevski, Gary Froyland, George Haller
We review and test twelve different approaches to the detection of finite-time
coherent material structures in two-dimensional, temporally aperiodic flows. We
consider both mathematical methods and diagnostic scalar fields, comparing their
performance on three benchmark examples: the quasiperiodically forced Bickley
jet, a two-dimensional turbulence simulation, and an observational wind velocity

Fundamentals of synchronization in chaotic systems, concepts, and applicationsChaos - Tập 7 Số 4 - Trang 520-543 - 1997
Louis M. Pecora, Thomas L. Carroll, Gregg A. Johnson, D. J. Mar, James F. Heagy
The field of chaotic synchronization has grown considerably since its advent in
1990. Several subdisciplines and “cottage industries” have emerged that have
taken on bona fide lives of their own. Our purpose in this paper is to collect
results from these various areas in a review article format with a tutorial
emphasis. Fundamentals of chaotic synchronization are reviewed first with
emphases on th... hiện toàn bộ
