Figure 1: The Lorenz attractor was first derived from a simple model of convection in the Earth's atmosphere. Tucker's work is hugely significant, not just because it provides the Lorenz attractor ...

The circuit in question is from the always interesting [Glen’s Stuff] website. From that site: The Lorenz system, originally discovered by American mathematician and meteorologist, Edward Norton ...

With that goal in mind, Lorenz constructed a simple set of equations for air convection and programmed ... Such a complex system is called a “strange attractor,” with the specific dynamics ...

As requested by readers, editor Andy Turudic demonstrates that it’s child’s play to set up an Analog Computer to compute a Lorenz Attractor. Anabrid’s THAT Analog Computer provides a ...

He developed the idea of the Lorenz Attractor, a functional explanation for the potentially profound effect of small initial actions. This became famously referred to as The Butterfly Effect.

"I think mathematically, the Lorenz attractor was a very important discovery ... According to Roebber, atmospheric convection — the heating and rising of air — is a prime example of a ...

as well as the butterfly-like shape of the strange attractor – an odd mathematical object which reveals more and more structure when examined closely – now known as the "Lorenz attractor".
