Description
Chaotic systems are a class of nonlinear dynamical systems that have captured the attention of mathematicians and engineers for long. Even though chaotic systems are deterministic in nature, long term prediction of behavior of such systems is diff...

FREE BODIES IN UNSTEADY VISCOUS FLOWS AND SIMPLE MECHANICAL ANALOGS: NONLINEAR DYNAMICS AND UNDERACTUATED CONTROL
Author
Abrajan Guerrero, Rodrigo
Date Created
2018
Description
In this dissertation we study the interactions between free bodies and unsteady viscous flows, with particular interest in locomotion and in particle transport in streaming flows.For self-propelling bodies, we present systems with two different me...
