Hyperbolic Lagrangian Coherent Structures (LCS) are time-dependent manifolds that organize tracer patterns in chaotic flow systems. In two-dimensional flow systems, LCSs take the shape of one-dimensional curves which act as the locally most attracting or repelling structures over a finite time inter...
