CSP - COMPLEX SYSTEMS APPROACH TO SELF-ORGANIZATION (CSAS 2016)
Abstract
a. The main focus of this conference is to understand the catastrophic transitions happening in a complex system using the theory selforganization. We also want to develop effective control strategies to prevent these critical transitions. The control strategies will be developed based on the early warning signals or precursors of an impending transition determined using complex systems theory. To apply the concepts and tools from complex systems theory to problems in engineering and physics. ?? To identify and characterize unifying features of selforganization observed in various systems. ?? To develop early warning signals of the critical transitions observed in complex systems ?? To develop prevention/control strategies for mitigating the catastrophic transitions observed in complex systems. b. This conference explores new frontiers in the area of complex net work systems with engineering applications. In particular, areas in combustion instabilities, and other aero thermo and thermo acoustic instabilities are addressed. They are important in the design of efficient propulsion systems as well as in prediction and prevention of instabilities. c. This is a new area not currently being looked into, but codes 35 and 31 are interested. USAF has expressed interest in the topic as well. d. The proceeding includes a CD with abstracts and summary of the state of the art in the field of complex network systems and applications in engineering systems.
