Informationen zum Autor Albert C.J. Luo received his B.S. in Mechanical Engineering (1984) and M.S. in Engineering Mechanics (1990) in China and Ph.D. in Applied Mechanics (1996) in Canada. During 1996-1998! he was an NSERC (Canada) post-doctoral fellow at UC Berkeley. From 1998-present! Dr. Luo have worked at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville as Assistant/Associate Professor. During 20 year research experience! Dr. Luo developed stochastic and resonant layer theories in nonlinear Hamiltonian systems; a local theory for non-smooth dynamical systems on connectable domains. In addition! Dr! Luo also developed an approximate plate theory; a large damage theory for anisotropic materials and a generalized fractal theory. He has published over 130 peer-reviewed journal and conference papers. Dr. Luo has served editors for the Journal "Communications in Nonlinear Science and Numerical simulation and two book series on Nonlinear Science and Complexity. Dr. Luo is the editorial member for IMeCh E Part K Journal of Multibody Dynamics and Journal of Vibration and Control. He also organized over 10 international symposiums and conferences on Dynamics and Control. Klappentext Describes the synchronization phenomenon! for low and for high dimensional situations! and illustrates possible applications in the field of communicating with chaos. This book summarizes the concepts of phase synchronization! lag synchronization! imperfect phase synchronization! and generalized synchronization. Zusammenfassung Summarizes the discoveries involving the study of synchronization in coupled chaotic systems. This book describes the complete synchronization phenomenon! both for low and for high dimensional situations! and illustrates possible applications in the field of communicating with chaos. It provides an overview on synchronization phenomena.
