Abstract

The discontinuity problem of general non‐linear evolutionary equations and the chaos of complex models of poly‐order are studied. The concept of “blown‐up” of Navier‐Stokes equation is discussed, which was introduced by OuYang in 1994 and 1995. The results show that the blown‐up of the model appears during the whole evolution of general non‐linear equations; and that the concept of “chaos” of Lorenz’s model should be restudied questioningly.
