MTH 3400 - Chaos and Nonlinear Dynamics



Credits: 4

Prerequisite(s): MTH 1410 and MTH 2410 with a grade of “C” or better, or Permission of instructor; and completion of General Studies requirements in Written Communication, Oral Communication, and Quantitative Literacy.

Description: This course is an introduction to dynamical systems from the extension of Newtonian physics to the development of chaos theory and nonlinear dynamics. It gives insight into the evolution of nonlinear dynamics from historical mathematical and applications viewpoints. It develops and applies chaos theory to physical systems. Algorithms for generating intricate fractal images and the mathematics behind the images are also developed.
