In this paper we introduce a method for analyzing the performance of coded modulation schemes based on iterated chaotic maps. In particular, it is known from coding theory that the minimum distance plays an important role, defining the behavior of the erro ...
In quasi-brittle materials such as concrete, failure is preceded by highly localized deformation patterns. Localized failure is caused by strain softening, which cannot be described by classical local models, because they lack a length scale. Mathematicall ...
This paper deals with Super Stable Orbits (SSOs) of the logistic map, and how they can be used to describe Unstable Periodic Orbits (UPOs).~We will show that Unstable Periodic Orbits have almost the same correlation properties as Super Stable ones from whi ...
A major challenge to understanding behavior is how the nervous system allows the learning of behavioral sequences that can occur over arbitrary timescales, ranging from milliseconds up to seconds, using a fixed millisecond learning rule. This article descr ...
Chaotic synchronization is treated within the framework of information theory. It is shown that information theory implies fundamental limits to chaotic synchronization in the presence of channel noise. With regard for these limits, a scheme is suggested f ...
In this paper a class of discretized piecewise linear chaotic maps of a very high dimensions are used for communication over a noisy channel. An information payload that is sent over a channel is controlled in the transmitter and is related to the symbolic ...
In this paper we examine coded modulations based on iterations of higher dimensional piece-wise linear maps(PWLM). Particulary, we study a generalization of the Bernoulli map in higher dimensions and its application to communications. In the proposed schem ...

A system of wooded pasture can be described by seven biological state variables (trees, shrubs, underwood grasslands, fallows, eutrophic meadows, oligrotrophic lawns and cattle) linked by a network of dynamic interactions, which are controlled by altitude ...
Vasomotion has been studied on segments of rat mesenteric and femoral arteries perfused in vitro. We have investigated 1) the effect of perfusion flow on the characteristics of vasomotion and 2) the nature and patterns of vasomotion. We have found that per ...
