Nonlinear dynamics is a field of study and mathematical framework concerned with systems whose behavior is not described by linear relationships, meaning the output is not proportional to the input and the principle of superposition does not hold. It investigates the complex, often unpredictable, patterns and emergent phenomena that arise from such systems, including bifurcations, attractors, and extreme sensitivity to initial conditions, providing essential tools for modeling and understanding intricate processes across diverse scientific and engineering domains.
