Abstract
Chaotic nonlinear low order systems are often regarded as paradigms of the atmospheric behaviour, not least because of their limited predictability. In this paper, the predictability of a forced nonlinear system proposed by Lorenz is examined. The system is a compelling heuristic model of the midβlatitude global circulation; it exhibits limited predictability. While weak error growth takes place throughout most of the phase space of the system, strong error growth is confined to very limited regions of phase space. A βdiscrete scatteringβ model of error growth is proposed. Copyright Β© 2003 Royal Meteorological Society.

The need for more accurate analysis of real physical systems has led to the use of stochastic modelling of such systems. Many of these formulations have been the result of an extension of ordinary differential equations to include a white noise excitation. It has been shown (see, e.g. [l-3]) that wh
## Abstract This work focuses on a class of nonlinear control problems that arise when new control systems which may use networked sensors and/or actuators are added to already operating control loops to improve closedβloop performance. In this case, it is desirable to design the preβexisting contr
We have simulated electrical activity of the intestine in a computer model that describes the coupled layers of longitudinal muscle (LM) and interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC). The model suggests that pacemaker activity is due to the ICC layer, while the pulse propagation involves the LM layer that i
