[摘要]:Spatiotemporally chaotic dynamics in laboratory experiments on convection are characterized using a new dimension, D(CH), determined from computational homology. Over a large range of system sizes, D(CH) scales in the same manner as D(KLD), a dimension determined from experimental data using Karhuenen-Loeve decomposition. Moreover, finite-size effects (the presence of boundaries in the experiment) lead to deviations from scaling that are similar for both D(CH) and D(KLD). In the absence of symmetry, D(CH) can be determined more rapidly than D(KLD). |
