This is the wiki page associated with Physics 4268/6268 Nonlinear Dynamics & Chaos. Physics 4268/6268 is an undergrad and grad level nonlinear dynamics course taught by Dan Goldman in the Physics Department at the Georgia Institute of Technology. The course is comprised of both a classroom component and a laboratory component in which student led groups will seek out and investigate a nonlinear dynamics experiment. Students thus develop intuition for nonlinear dynamics both on paper and in a hands on laboratory environment.

The goal of this wiki is to develop and compile a library of experiments, content generated by student, that illustrate fundamental principles of nonlinear dynamics.


Site information

On this site we will post all content related to the student led non-linear dynamics experiments. Each group is given access to edit a project page in which they will provide a wikipedia styled entry detailing experiment being performed. The page should include a brief summary of the experiment and scientific questions followed by a more detailed overview of the theoretical and experimental details. Pages should contain references to outside information via journal or book citations, and external web pages. Once the lab has been completed the page should be edited to include information on experimental analysis, results, and a conclusion. A sample web page has been posted and can be found under the project section in the sidebar.
