Various Animations of Attractors or patterns

Below, I run different patterns or attractors that we found in differential equations (PDE or ODE) or discrete mappings ... :

Predator-prey diffusif model, rectangular domain

Spatial dynamics (and patterns), on a square domain, of a predator-prey diffusif model with Holling-type-II and a modified Leslie-Gower functional responses. (1) The spatial disperion of the prey, (2) The spatial disperion of the predator.

The renderings are based on models of reaction-diffusion equations which express conservation of predator and prey densities, it has the following form :

\frac {\partial H}{\partial T} = D_1\Delta H + ( a_1 - b_1H -\frac{c_1P}{H+k_1} H

\frac{\partial P}{\partial T} = D_2 \Delta P + a_2 - \frac{c_2P}{H+k_2} P

Predator-prey diffusif model, circular domain

*

Spatial dynamics (and patterns), on a circular domain, of te same predator-prey diffusif model. (1) The spatial disperion of the prey, (2) The spatial disperion of the predator.

Movies showing, for 4 coupled Hindmach-Rose systems (modeling 4 coupled neurones), the situation in which 1) no synchronization occurs, 2) complete synchronization and 3) burst synchronization.

See my paper :

Ref: IJBC 9(6) ,

in the Int. Journ. of Bifurcation and Chaos 9(6), 1009-1039, (1999), (IJBC).

The state equations of Chua's system are given by

dx/dt = alpha.[y-x-f_2(x)], dy/dt = x - y + z, dz/dt = -beta.y -gama.z,

where x, y and z are functions of t, f_2(x)= m_1.x + (1/2)(m_0-m_1)[|x+1|-|x-1|] is the Chua's nonlinearity, which is, here, modified to get multispiral attractors, and alpha, beta, gama, m_1 and m_2 are the parameters of the system.

Animated view of multi-scroll attractors obtained from a non-autonomous differential system

See my paper :

Ref: IJBC 9(6) ,

in the Int. Journ. of Bifurcation and Chaos 9(6), 1009-1039, (1999), (IJBC).

The state equations I used are given by :

dx/dt = y - f_2(x), dy/dt = -alpha*(x + y) +alpha*K*sin(2*PI*Omega*t),

where x and y are functions of t, f_2(x)= m_1.x + (1/2)(m_0-m_1)[|x+1|-|x-1|] is the Chua's nonlinearity, which is, here, modified to get multispiral attractors, and alpha, K, Omega, m_0 and m_1 are the parameters of the system.

Animated view of multi-scroll attractors : a simple dissipative Dynamical (jerk) System

See : "Enhancing Chaos in some New Class of Dissipative Dynamical Systems" (Aziz-Alaoui M.A. unpublished paper, 2001).

See HERE .

The state equations are given by

x''' + A x'' + x' = G(x),

that is :

dx/dt = y ; dy/dt = z ; dz/dt = -A z + y + G(x) ;

where x, y and z are functions of t, is the nonlinearity I used and modified to get multispiral attractors ...

Animated view of a mapping attractor

Appearance of the strange attractor of the mapping which we study in the references cited below (it is a mapping of the type Hénon-Lozi). To see the effect of repeated application of this transformation, we take an arbitrary shape (a square digitized by an array of 100 by 100 regularly spaced points), and apply the transformation iteratively, (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 times). The square is fastly deformed, after a few iterations the attractor becomes recognizable. The following iterations do not have any effect on it . It is a subset of the plane which is invariant with respect to the transformation.

Animated view of a Hénon-type mapping attractors

Abstract We present and analyze a modified version of Hénon map. Hénon [1976] studied the following map :

x_{n+1} = y_n+1-a.x_n^2 ,

y_{n+1} = b.x_n

(a and b are the parameters). By modifying the nonlinear term of this map, we obtain some new strange attractors with many folds (interest: secure communication for example ... ! ). The animation shows first the classical Hénon attractor, then a 2-folds strange attractor exhibited by the modified Hénon's map, then a 3-folds strange attractor, then a 4-folds strange attractor.

Animated view of Lozi-type mapping attractors

Abstract We present and analyze a modified version of Lozi map. Lozi [1978] studied the following map :

x_{n+1} = y_n+1 - a.|x_n| ,

y_{n+1} = b.x_n

(a and b are the parameters). By modifying the nonlinear term of this map, we obtain some new chaotic attractors with many folds (interest: secure communication for example ... ! ). The animation shows first the classical Lozi attractor, then a 2-folds strange attractor exhibited by the modified Lozi's map, then a 3-folds strange attractor, then a 4-folds strange attractor.
