Many nonlinear systems do not have explicit solutions. The dynamical systems approach shifts the focus from finding explicit solutions to discovering geometric properties of solutions. It also recognises that even a small amount of nonlinearity in a physical system can be responsible for very complicated chaotic behaviour. In this course you will learn the fundamentals of dynamical systems in discrete-time maps and continuous-time ODEs, allowing you to analyse the local and global behaviour of dynamical systems. You will also learn how to analyse time series data using nonlinear tools and build appropriate predictive models. Throughout the course, computers will be used frequently for numerical computations.
