Background and Scope<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The conference is the eighth IFAC event related to series about analysis and control of chaotic systems. Following the tradition inaugurated by the previous joint edition, the 2027 edition of the IFAC ACNDC has the ambitious goal of bringing together experts from the fields of chaos as well as of the analysis and control of complex, nonlinear systems. These research areas provide foundational mathematical and methodological tools to several distinct topics, which are of strong interest for this IFAC meeting. Such topics include biological systems (network biology, gene regulatory networks, modeling and control of epidemics, etc.), electro-mechanical systems (power electronics, control of flexible joints, robotics, electric vehicle (EV) drive control systems), physical applications (optics, magnetics, fluidics and microfluidics, etc.), economics (game theory, optimal production and inventory control, climate-economy models, etc.), renewable energy (smart buildings, wind turbines, wave energy generation, etc.), to mention just a few. The conference will encompass and include high-quality contributions in the interdisciplinary fields of chaos and nonlinear systems, including applications involving complex, distributed, networked or uncertain dynamics. Synchronization and control of complex interconnected models, possibly by relying on data-driven methods or on strategies inspired by hybrid dynamics, is a relevant topic within the scope of this event. The aim of this even is to bring together, in the unique location provided by the historic Villa Mondragone, the communities of control engineering, physics, economics, biology, fluid dynamics, power electronics, electronic circuits, etc. with an opportunity to exchange information and new ideas and to discuss new developments in the field of chaos control and synchronization. These topics will be addressed both in terms of theoretical contributions as well as by envisioning practical implementations. The conference aims also at directly involving students and young researchers in order to introduce them to the field of chaos and nonlinear dynamics, with applications also in various fields of engineering. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conference will cover all topics related to chaos and synchronization within the framework of control systems theory and engineering, including (but not limited to) the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Control of complex systems
Analysis and control of nonlinear systems
Bifurcations in complex systems
Nonlinear time series and identification
Limit cycles in networks of oscillators
Climate models
Applications (biology, chemical engineering, economics, energy systems, physics, electrical engineering)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diversity and Inclusion statement<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

IFAC, as an international federation serving and representing all those concerned with the theory and application of automatic control and systems engineering wherever situated, is devoted to creating and fostering an inclusive environment that is open to diverse thoughts, ideas, and communications, without fear of discrimination, harassment, or retaliation against any member of this community. It is committed to providing equal opportunities and a safe environment for every person who chooses to participate in its work. Additionally IFAC strives for these same principles for all IFAC activities, including technical events, journals, and its various committees and governing boards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
