Sentences with phrase «exhibit chaotic behaviour»

An averaging process is involved going up from the atomic scale via kinetic theory to the level of fluid motions, but chaos emerges at that scale (ie the averaged quantities exhibit chaotic behaviour).

Some of these systems exhibit chaotic behaviour: their state at some future time can not be predicted from their state at an earlier time, because imperceptible differences that exist now can cause big divergences later.

«A dynamical system such as the climate system, governed by nonlinear deterministic equations (see Nonlinearity), may exhibit erratic or chaotic behaviour in the sense that very small changes in the initial state of the system in time lead to large and apparently unpredictable changes in its temporal evolution.

The broader theory of dynamical complexity says that chaotic systems exhibit characterisitc behaviours — among these abrupt change and regime persistence.
