It's 2017 and there are still no good methods to analyze chaotic systems.
What is holding us back?

Philosophy of Chaos hasn't advanced in over 100 years.
>>8890507
Do you mean the chaos theory or something else?
Mere humans aren't meant to understand chaos.
Too much complexity. We are just primates after all.
>>8890466
Humans can't handle chaos. That's why we're obsessed with looking for patterns that make sense. Laws that are consistent. Order that doesn't exist. We're all essentially so traumatized by reality that we've convinced ourselves that things do make sense.
I don't know dude.

Three body problems are hard enough as it is. Trying to deal with things like plasma is really really pushing it beyond our capabilities. I guess we need better modeling systems as well as vastly more powerful computers.

What is chaotic about that picture?
>Chaos turns to understanding from the centre to the edge
We understand chaos pretty well, the general problem is finding the exact initial conditions from which the pattern emerges.
>>8890791
Is that book any good?
>>8891090
Finding exact initial conditions can't be done though.

Chaos theory is thoroughly researched and gave everything it needed to give.
It's not that strong of a theory to tackle problems like turbulence for example.
I think complexity related research is the new thing to look at.

Lyapunovs exponent doesn't tell you much in most real world applications.
There was an interesting application of it in predicting epilepsy attacks though.

Consider spread polynomials to model the increasing complexity that arises out of rational trigonometry

thats because its called nonlinear dynamics, pleb

1. The inability of a computer to write an infinitely large, accurate floating point number
2. Uncertainty principle
3. Measurement technology and accuracy/precision problems

What about calculating the digits of pi?

Chaos is chaotic because it resists methodological analysis. It's not really surprising.
>>8895887
What if we torture the chaotic data until it yields?

Around 2006 or so I heard chaos described as the part of turbulence that we understand and can adequately characterize. I think the guy who said it knew what he was talking about and, as a matter of semantics, I agree

Especially not the kind that do well at math and science.
Same goes for QM.

Maybe you can't handle chaos. I can.
