Fractal boundaries in open hydrodynamical flows: Signatures of chaotic saddles (original) (raw)

Physical review. E, Statistical physics, plasmas, fluids, and related interdisciplinary topics, 1995

Abstract

We introduce the concept of fractal boundaries in open hydrodynamical flows based on two gedanken experiments carried out with passive tracer particles colored differently. It is shown that the signature for the presence of a chaotic saddle in the advection dynamics is a fractal boundary between regions of different colors. The fractal parts of the boundaries found in the two
