The localization factor, which was first developed in solid state physics [1][2][3][4][5][6], has often been used to quantify vibration localization in mono-coupled nearly periodic structures [7][8][9][10][11][12]. The localization factor is the average exponential decay rate of the vibration amplit

## Abstract We propose a new test to detect chaotic dynamics, based on the stability of the largest Lyapunov exponent from different sample sizes. This test is applied to the data used in the singleโblind controlled competition tests for nonโlinearity and chaos that were generated by Barnett __et a

In this paper we consider the problem of synchronization of coupled chaotic systems. Synchronization is studied by means of local transversal Lyapunov exponents. We show that they can be successfully used in investigations of synchronization properties. A criterion for synchronization based on this
