Abstract

In the previous chapters we have introduced the methods of chaotic behaviour description. Here we will observe how the behaviour of our systems changes during the transition from periodic to chaotic states. The mechanism of the transition to chaos is of fundamental importance for understanding the phenomenon of chaotic behaviour. There are three main routes to chaos which can be observed in nonlinear oscillators.
