New study uncovers hidden chaos in physical systems, revolutionizing experimental possibilities.
The article explores the complex dynamics of a Duffing oscillator using ordinal patterns analysis. The researchers studied how this system behaves in different scenarios, from regular patterns to chaotic behavior. By using a special technique, they found hidden patterns in the chaos that traditional methods couldn't detect. They also discovered a connection between certain measures of chaos and the system's behavior, which helps explain sudden changes in its dynamics.
