A Systemic Control Model for Covid-19 Outbreak from a Safety Engineering Perspective

Reducing the consequences of the Covid 19 outbreak requires a systematic approach. The most effective way to prevent this disease is to cut off the virus transmission chain. In this letter, a systemic model for the management of the Covid 19 crisis is presented based on the bow-tie analysis model and the concept of Layers of Protection Analysis from the perspective of safety engineering. In thi...

Chaotic Itinerancy: A Multi-Disciplinary Perspective

Chaotic itinerancy is characterized here as a general mechanism of high-dimensional systems. The paper focuses on the interplay between the low-dimensional behavior in the vicinity of attractors and the transients of the embedding larger system. Using this interplay we chart the relationship of chaotic itinerancy to some other dynamical concepts and applied notions. From the dynamic computation...
