Intermittent transition to turbulence in dissipative dynamical systems

Communications in Mathematical Physics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

We study some simple dissipative dynamical systems exhibiting a transition from a stable periodic behavior to a chaotic one. At that transition, the inverse coherence time grows continuously from zero due to the random occurrence of widely separated bursts in the time record.
