The above picture represents the space-time (space is vertical and time is horizontal) motion of a unstable periodic orbit of the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation. Motivated by low-dimensional chaos theory, unstable periodic orbits represent a recent attempt to gain insights to spatiotemporal chaos and weak-turbulence.
