Comprendre et accompagner les systèmes loin de l'équilibre

Comprendre et accompagner les systèmes loin de l'équilibre

Abstract

Les auteurs s’intéressent aux situations dans lesquelles un système, évoluant à distance de son bassin d’attraction, présente un comportement non linéaire, chaotique, difficile à modéliser autant qu’à gérer. Plus précisément, ils explorent ce moment de l’instabilité où le système est susceptible de bifurquer, soit pour revenir à l’équilibre antérieur, soit pour basculer vers des trajectoires qui le mènent à l’effondrement, ou à un nouvel état d’équilibre, ou à une mutation, à des solutions émergentes, etc. Que ces situations concernent la chimie, les sciences du vivant, la psychologie, les sciences sociales, l’écologie, l’approche de ces moments de bifurcation, de rupture, de bascule permet de comprendre et d’accompagner les systèmes dans un moment à la fois inquiétant et cependant fort d’opportunités.

The authors are interested in situations in which a system, evolving at a distance from its basin of attraction, displays non-linear, chaotic behaviour, as difficult to model as to manage. More specifically, they explore that moment of instability when the system is likely to branch off, either to return to the previous equilibrium, or to swing towards trajectories that lead it to collapse, or to a new state of equilibrium, or to mutation, or to emerging solutions, and so on. Whether these situations concern chemistry, life sciences, psychology, social sciences or ecology, the approach to these moments of bifurcation, rupture and change enables us to understand and manage systems at a time that may be worrying, but also full of opportunities.
