Control of Chaos: Methods and Applications. II. Applications

Reviewed were the problems and methods for control of chaos, which in the last decade was the subject of intensive studies. Consideration was given to their application in various scientific fields such as mechanics (control of pendulums, beams, plates, friction), physics (control of turbulence, lasers, chaos in plasma, and propagation of the dipole domains), chemistry, biology, ecology, economics, and medicine, as well as in various branches of engineering such as mechanical systems (control of vibroformers, microcantilevers, cranes, and vessels), spacecraft, electrical and electronic systems, communication systems, information systems, and chemical and processing industries (stirring of fluid flows and processing of free-flowing materials).
