I believe that @Baluncore and I have both said that this is a bad practice, so there are probably very few examples of it. You really... -
DaveE replied to the thread Undergrad Chua's oscillator circuit -- Intuitive picture.This is a strawman argument. Simulators never represent "real" systems (chaotic or not) with perfect accuracy. Engineers never create... -

It seems you still are hooked up on the idea that the precise trajectory for a chaotic system is "the way" to predict its dynamical... -
DaveE replied to the thread Undergrad Chua's oscillator circuit -- Intuitive picture.For this sort of chaotic oscillator I don't think the ICs (or the Butterflies) matter much. Run the simulation longer and it will access... -

Initial conditions ".IC V(C2) 0.80000" produces a different outcome to ".IC V(C2) 0.80001". The differences are initially small, but... -
DaveE replied to the thread High School Why would sailboat racers prefer a full keel over a fin keel?.OK, It's not a great sailboat, and it's not a great power boat. But it is suitable for it's purpose. Jack of all trades, master of none... -
DaveE replied to the thread Undergrad Chua's oscillator circuit -- Intuitive picture.I'm not sure what you mean by "a spike", the circuit oscillates chaotically, so everything is changing. But, generally, you won't get a... -
DaveE replied to the thread Hi! Can someone explain about Differential Equations?.https://www.khanacademy.org/math/ap-calculus-bc/bc-differential-equations-new/bc-7-1/v/differential-equation-introduction? -

Re. the discussion about 'reality' of this simulation. If I understand correctly, the beauty of this class of systems is that it is very... -

That simulations are real simulations, is a truism. Simulators do not model reality, they model a conveniently reductive, idealised... -
DaveE replied to the thread Undergrad Chua's oscillator circuit -- Intuitive picture.Simulations can be very valuable when used appropriately. That's the problem; people think it's an easy answer to every circuit... -
DaveE replied to the thread Undergrad Chua's oscillator circuit -- Intuitive picture.In the ideal circuit model: The only element that can dissipate energy is the resistor. The negative resistor (Chua diode) can only... -

Here is a simulation in LTspice using real electronic components. -
DaveE replied to the thread Undergrad Capacitor Voltages at t = 0: Zero or Split?.If y'all think repeating your position over and over, and over and over, and... will convince the other guy, you may want to focus a bit... -

As we have already discussed, the question is about ##t=0##, not ##t=0^+##. This is simply factually untrue. As the OP already discussed...
