Control of an Adaptive Refinement Technique of Generalized Cell Mapping by System Dynamics

Generalized cell mapping is an efficient and powerful numerical tool for the prediction of the long-term behavior and global analysis of nonlinear dynamic systems. The only drawback of this method is the enormous computational effort it requires for high-dimensional systems. We overcome this problem by adaptively refining a very rough starting cell grid, where the adaptation is controlled by the long-term dynamics of the system. We illustrate the efficiency of our approach by examples.
