This paper developed a methodology based on the catastrophe theory for estimating the rural informatization level in central China, and took evaluation of the rural informatization level among the six provinces of central China as an example to test the effectiveness of the method. Taking data from reference and constructing the hierarchy based on catastrophe progression method, it was calculat...

A transducer is a system that couples two loads. For example, an electromechanical transducer couples a mechanical force and an electrical voltage. A two-load, nonlinear system can exhibit rich behavior of bifurcation, which can be displayed in a three-dimensional space, with the horizontal plane representing the two loads, and the vertical axis representing the state of the system. In this thr...
