Abstract
We have found a way for penetrating the space of the dynamical systems toward systems of arbitrary dimension exhibiting the nonlinear mixing of a large number of oscillation modes through which extraordinarily complex time evolutions may arise. The system design is based on assuring the occurrence of a number of Hopf bifurcations in a set of fixed points of a relatively generic system of ordinary differential equations, in which the main peculiarity is that the nonlinearities appear through functions of a linear combination of the system variables. The paper outlines the design procedure and presents a selection of numerical simulations with a variety of designed systems whose dynamical behaviors are really rich and full of unknown features. For concreteness, the presentation is focused on illustrating the oscillatory mixing effects on the periodic orbits, through which the harmonic oscillation born in a Hopf bifurcation becomes successively enriched with the intermittent incorporation of other oscillation modes of higher frequencies while the orbit remains periodic and without the necessity of bifurcating instabilities. Even in the absence of a proper mathematical theory covering the nonlinear mixing mechanisms, we find enough evidence to expect that the oscillatory scenario be truly scalable concerning the phase-space dimension, the multiplicity of involved fixed points, and the range of time scales so that extremely complex but ordered dynamical behaviors could be sustained through it.

Abstract
We report experimental observations of Shil'nikov-type homoclinic chaos and mixed-mode oscillations in asymmetry-induced Chua's oscillator. The asymmetry plays a crucial role in the related homoclinic bifurcation. The asymmetry is introduced in the Chua circuit by forcing a dc voltage. Then by tuning a control parameter, we observed transition from large amplitude limit cycle to homoclinic chaos via a sequence of mixed-mode oscillations interspersed by chaotic states. We provide experimental evidences that the asymmetry effect can also be induced in the oscillatory Chua circuit when it is coupled with another one in a rest state. The coupling strength then controls the strength of asymmetry and thereby reproduces all the features of Shil'nikov chaos.

Abstract
A generalized model for the behavior of the stress tensor in non-Newtonian fluids is investigated for spatially homogeneous plane Couette flow, showing a variety of nonlinear responses and deterministic chaos. Mapping of chaotic solutions is achieved through the largest Lyapunov exponent for the two main parameters: The shear rate and the temperature and/or density. Bifurcation diagrams and stability analysis are used to reveal some of the rich dynamics that can be found. Suggested mechanisms for stability loss in these complex fluids include Hopf, saddle-node, and period-doubling bifurcations.

Abstract
The functional dynamics exhibited by cell collectives are fascinating examples of robust, synchronized, collective behavior in spatially extended biological systems. To investigate the roles of local cellular dynamics and interaction strength in the spatiotemporal dynamics of cell collectives of different sizes, we study a model system consisting of a ring of coupled cells incorporating a three-step biochemical pathway of regulated activator-inhibitor reactions. The isolated individual cells display very complex dynamics as a result of the nonlinear interactions common in cellular processes. On coupling the cells to nearest neighbors, through diffusion of the pathway end product, the ring of cells yields a host of interesting and unusual dynamical features such as, suppression of chaos, phase synchronization, traveling waves, and intermittency, for varying interaction strengths and system sizes. But robust complete synchronization can be induced in these coupled cells with a small degree of random coupling among them even where regular coupling yielded only intermittent synchronization. Our studies indicate that robustness in synchronized functional dynamics in tissues and cell populations in nature can be ensured by a few transient random connections among the cells. Such connections are being discovered only recently in real cellular systems.

Abstract
We provide experimental evidence for the existence of Shil'nikov homoclinic chaos in the fluctuations in flow which can be observed in isolated perfused rabbit ear arteries, and establish a close association between homoclinicity and type-III Pomeau-Manneville intermittent behavior. The transition between the homoclinic scenario and type-III intermittency is clarified by a mathematical model of the arterial smooth muscle cell. Simulations of the effects of nitric oxide (NO) by the vascular endothelium on these patterns of behavior closely match experimental observations.

Abstract
We present the experimental observation of phase synchronization transitions in the bidirectional coupling of chaotic and nonchaotic oscillators. A variety of transitions are characterized and compared to numerical simulations of a time delayed model. The characteristic 2pi phase jumps usually appear during the transitions, specially in those clearly associated with a saddle-node bifurcation. The study is done with pairs of optothermal oscillators linearly coupled by heat transfer.

Abstract
Experimental observations of an almost symmetric electronic circuit show complicated sequences of bifurcations. These results are discussed in the light of a theory of imperfect global bifurcations. It is shown that much of the dynamics observed in the circuit can be understood by reference to imperfect homoclinic bifurcations without constructing an explicit mathematical model of the system.

Abstract
We report experimental and numerical results showing how certain N-dimensional dynamical systems are able to exhibit complex time evolutions based on the nonlinear combination of N-1 oscillation modes. The experiments have been done with a family of thermo-optical systems of effective dynamical dimension varying from 1 to 6. The corresponding mathematical model is an N-dimensional vector field based on a scalar-valued nonlinear function of a single variable that is a linear combination of all the dynamic variables. We show how the complex evolutions appear associated with the occurrence of successive Hopf bifurcations in a saddle-node pair of fixed points up to exhaust their instability capabilities in N dimensions. For this reason the observed phenomenon is denoted as the full instability behavior of the dynamical system. The process through which the attractor responsible for the observed time evolution is formed may be rather complex and difficult to characterize. Nevertheless, the well-organized structure of the time signals suggests some generic mechanism of nonlinear mode mixing that we associate with the cluster of invariant sets emerging from the pair of fixed points and with the influence of the neighboring saddle sets on the flow nearby the attractor. The generation of invariant tori is likely during the full instability development and the global process may be considered as a generalized Landau scenario for the emergence of irregular and complex behavior through the nonlinear superposition of oscillatory motions.

Abstract
We show how certain N-dimensional dynamical systems are able to exploit the full instability capabilities of their fixed points to do Hopf bifurcations and how such a behavior produces complex time evolutions based on the nonlinear combination of the oscillation modes that emerged from these bifurcations. For really different oscillation frequencies, the evolutions describe robust wave form structures, usually periodic, in which self-similarity with respect to both the time scale and system dimension is clearly appreciated. For closer frequencies, the evolution signals usually appear irregular but are still based on the repetition of complex wave form structures. The study is developed by considering vector fields with a scalar-valued nonlinear function of a single variable that is a linear combination of the N dynamical variables. In this case, the linear stability analysis can be used to design N-dimensional systems in which the fixed points of a saddle-node pair experience up to N-1 Hopf bifurcations with preselected oscillation frequencies. The secondary processes occurring in the phase region where the variety of limit cycles appear may be rather complex and difficult to characterize, but they produce the nonlinear mixing of oscillation modes with relatively generic features.
