This book covers the latest advancements and applications of nonlinear dynamics in various fields of science and engineering, presenting a curated selection of peer-reviewed contributions at the 2nd International Conference on Nonlinear Dynamics and Applications (ICNDA 2024) at Sikkim Manipal Institute of Technology (SMIT). Organized by the Department of Mathematics, SMIT, SMU, this international conference provides a platform for scientists, researchers, and inventors to share their findings and exchange ideas in the ever-evolving field of nonlinear dynamics.
This book comprises three volumes. Volume 2 focuses on chaos, complexity, and fractals in dynamical systems. It covers topics such as novel methods for solving population balance models; analysis of fractal structures and nonlinear partial differential equations; dynamics of disease therapy and cytokine interactions; stability and behavior of predator-prey and ecological systems; fluid dynamics and heat transfer in nanofluids; and numerical and analytical approaches to material and structural optimization
