Introductory Non-Linear Dynamics
Offered By: Indian Institute of Technology Delhi via Swayam
Course Description
Overview
This course is designed to introduce students to the basic ideas of dynamical systems, stability, and chaos, largely using iterative mappings as the model. The course will largely focus on qualitative ideas and will require students to explore dynamics through simulations (MATLAB will be adequate).
