Lorenz Attractor How It Was Found

We follow the logic that led Lorenz to deduce the existence of the strange attractor in his equations. From phase space volume contraction, the absence of stable fixed points, limit cycles, or quasiperiodic orbits, and the absence of escape to infinity, the only possible attractor remaining is a 2-dimensional-ish object which trajectories wander around on in a seemingly erratic, aperiodic manner. This is the famous Lorenz attractor, the first known strange or chaotic attractor. • As Sherlock Holmes said in The Sign of Four, When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. • The main parameter, r, is proportional to the Rayleigh number (Ra), a dimensionless number associated with buoyancy-driven flow, or convection, when Ra is above a critical value, Rc. • ► Chapters • 0:00 Lorenz system • 0:37 What happens for r less than 1? • 1:20 What happens for r greater than 1?
