A gallery of Chua attractors

This book aims to bridge the gap. A gallery of nearly 900 chaotic attractors -- some generated by Chua s physical circuit, the majority through computer simulation of the circuit and its generalizations -- are illustrated as 3D color images, time series and fast Fourier transform algorithms. For interested researchers, also presented is the information necessary to replicate the behaviors and images. Finally, how the fractal richness can be plied to artistic ends in generating music and interesting sounds is shown; some examples are included in the DVD-ROM which comes with the book.

Contents: Chua s Oscillator and Its Generations; The Physical Circuit; Dimensionless Equations; The Cubic Function; Single-Scroll Systems; Multiscrolls Systems.
