Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Nonlinear Dynamics and Applications (ICNDA 2026), Volume 3

This book presents the latest advancements and applications of nonlinear dynamics in science and engineering through a carefully selected collection of peer-reviewed papers presented at the 3rd International Conference on Nonlinear Dynamics and Applications (ICNDA 2026), held at the Sikkim Manipal Institute of Technology (SMIT). Jointly organized by the Department of Mathematics and the Department of Computer Science & Engineering, SMIT, Sikkim Manipal University, the conference provides an international platform for students, researchers, scientists, academicians, and practitioners to share recent developments and exchange ideas in the rapidly growing field of nonlinear dynamics. This three-volume set covers a broad spectrum of topics in nonlinear science. Volume 3 delves into the latest developments in dynamical models, communication systems, and complex networks, emphasizing mathematical modeling, analysis, computational techniques, and interdisciplinary uses. Dynamical models serve as frameworks to describe and forecast how systems progress over time across various fields, including biology, physics, engineering, economics, and ecology. This book addresses optimization in control and neural systems, machine learning applications for signal analysis and classification, as well as graph theory and its network applications. It also discusses wavelets and transforms used in signal processing, communication systems, semiconductor technologies, nanomaterials, and other relevant areas within applied mathematics and engineering. Special focus is given to nonlinear phenomena in communication systems, such as signal interference, distortion, synchronization, and data transfer. Additionally, network science and graphs theory offer insights into the structure and dynamics of social, biological, technological, and communication networks. The papers presented illustrate how nonlinear dynamics and mathematical modeling contribute to a better theoretical grasp and practical solutions for contemporary communication technologies and interconnected systems. This book includes 60 research papers.
