Introduction
Chaos theory in nonlinear systems has gained significant attention in recent years due to its ability to explain complex behaviors that cannot be predicted using traditional linear models. This theory explores the unpredictable nature of nonlinear systems and how seemingly random patterns can emerge from simple initial conditions. Understanding chaos theory has wide-ranging applications in fields such as physics, biology, economics, and engineering.
