Dynamical properties and chaos synchronization of a new chaotic complex nonlinear system

In this paper, we introduce a new chaotic complex nonlinear system and study its dynamical properties including invariance, dissipativity, equilibria and their stability, Lyapunov exponents, chaotic behavior, chaotic attractors, as well as necessary conditions for this system to generate chaos. Our system displays 2 and 4-scroll chaotic attractors for certain values of its parameters. Chaos synchronization of these attractors is studied via active control and explicit expressions are derived for the control functions which are used to achieve chaos synchronization. These expressions are tested numerically and excellent agreement is found. A Lyapunov function is derived to prove that the error system is asymptotically stable.     

Parameter identification and adaptive impulsive synchronization of uncertain complex-variable chaotic systems

Synchronization of nonlinear dynamical systems with complex variables has attracted much more attention in various fields of science and engineering. In this paper, the problem of parameter identification and adaptive impulsive synchronization for a class of chaotic (hyperchaotic) complex nonlinear systems with uncertain parameters is investigated. Based on the theories of adaptive control and impulsive control, a synchronization scheme is designed to make a class of chaotic and hyperchaotic complex systems asymptotically synchronized, and uncertain parameters are identified simultaneously in the process of synchronization. Particularly, the proposed adaptive–impulsive control laws for synchronization are simple and can be readily applied in practical applications. The synchronization of two identical chaotic complex Chen systems and two identical hyperchaotic complex Lü systems are taken as two examples to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed controllers and identifiers.     

Influence of Initial Conditions on the Postcritical Behavior of a Nonlinear Aeroelastic System

The behavior of a nonlinear, non-Hamiltonian system in the postcritical (flutter) domain is studied with special attention to the influence of initial conditions on the properties of attractors situated at a certain point of the control parameter space. As a prototype system, an elastic panel is considered that is subjected to a combination of supersonic gas flow and quasistatic loading in the middle surface. A two natural modes approximation, resulting in a four-dimensional phase space and several control parameters is considered in detail. For two fixed points in the control parameter space, several plane sections of the four-dimensional space of initial conditions are presented and the asymptotic behavior of the final stationary responses are identified. Amongst the latter there are stable periodic orbits, both symmetric and asymmetric with respect to the origin, as well as chaotic attractors. The mosaic structure of the attraction basins is observed. In particular, it is shown that even for neighboring initial conditions can result in distinctly different nonstationary responses asymptotically approach quite different types of attractors. A number of closely neighboring periodic attractors are observed, separated by Hopf bifurcations. Periodic attractors also are observed under special initial conditions in the domains where chaotic behavior is usually expected.     

Dynamical analysis of the generalized Sprott C system with only two stable equilibria

A generalized Sprott C system with only two stable equilibria is investigated by detailed theoretical analysis as well as dynamic simulation, including some basic dynamical properties, Lyapunov exponent spectra, fractal dimension, bifurcations, and routes to chaos. In the parameter space where the equilibria of the system are both asymptotically stable, chaotic attractors coexist with period attractors and stable equilibria. Moreover, the existence of singularly degenerate heteroclinic cycles for a suitable choice of the parameters is investigated. Periodic solutions and chaotic attractors can be found when these cycles disappear.     

Complete synchronization of chaotic complex nonlinear systems with uncertain parameters

Our main objective in this work is to investigate complete synchronization (CS) of n-dimensional chaotic complex systems with uncertain parameters. An adaptive control scheme is designed to study the synchronization of chaotic attractors of these systems. We applied this scheme, as an example, to study complete synchronization of chaotic attractors of two identical complex Lorenz systems. The adaptive control functions and the parameters estimation laws are calculated analytically based on the complex Lyapunov function. We show that the error dynamical systems are globally stable. Numerical simulations are computed to check the analytical expressions of adaptive controllers.     

Synchronization of chaotic systems using fuzzy impulsive control

This paper investigates the problem of fuzzy impulsive control to synchronize two chaotic systems using a novel time-dependent Lyapunov function approach. Compared with the existing time-independent Lyapunov methods, the proposed method enables us to exploit more information on the impulsive intervals. Initially, using the Lyapunov technique and two parameterized linear matrix inequality (LMI) techniques, some less conservative synchronization criteria via a fuzzy impulsive controller using the states of both drive and response chaotic systems are derived. Subsequently, an LMI approach to designing such a fuzzy impulsive controller is developed to realize the synchronization. Finally, the proposed method is applied to the chaotic Lorenz system and Rösler system to illustrate its effectiveness.     

A novel bounded 4D chaotic system

This paper presents a novel bounded four-dimensional (4D) chaotic system which can display hyperchaos, chaos, quasiperiodic and periodic behaviors, and may have a unique equilibrium, three equilibria and five equilibria for the different system parameters. Numerical simulation shows that the chaotic attractors of the new system exhibit very strange shapes which are distinctly different from those of the existing chaotic attractors. In addition, we investigate the ultimate bound and positively invariant set for the new system based on the Lyapunov function method, and obtain a hyperelliptic estimate of it for the system with certain parameters.     

A new chaotic attractor from hybrid optical bistable system

In this work, a new three-dimensional autonomous chaotic system has been introduced by modifying a hybrid optical system. The single quadratic nonlinearity is replaced by a single cubic nonlinearity; the new system can display two 1-scroll chaotic attractors simultaneously or one 2-scroll chaotic attractor. The bifurcation diagram is obtained and Lyapunov spectrum is calculated for the proposed system. The results show that the new system exhibits rich complexity features such as stable, periodic, and chaotic dynamics.

Chaos control and modified projective synchronization of unknown heavy symmetric chaotic gyroscope systems via Gaussian radial basis adaptive backstepping control

This paper proposes the chaos control and the modified projective synchronization methods for unknown heavy symmetric chaotic gyroscope systems via Gaussian radial basis adaptive backstepping control. Because of the nonlinear terms of the gyroscope system, the system exhibits chaotic motions. Occasionally, the extreme sensitivity to initial states in a system operating in chaotic mode can be very destructive to the system because of unpredictable behavior. In order to improve the performance of a dynamic system or avoid the chaotic phenomena, it is necessary to control a chaotic system with a regular or periodic motion beneficial for working with a particular condition. As chaotic signals are usually broadband and noise-like, synchronized chaotic systems can be used as cipher generators for secure communication. Obviously, the importance of obtaining these objectives is specified when the dynamics of gyroscope system are unknown. In this paper, using the neural backstepping control technique, control laws are established which guarantees the chaos control and the modified projective synchronization of unknown chaotic gyroscope system. In the neural backstepping control, Gaussian radial basis functions are utilized to on-line estimate the system dynamic functions. Also, the adaptation laws of the on-line estimators are derived in the sense of Lyapunov function. Thus, the unknown chaotic gyroscope system can be guaranteed to be asymptotically stable. Also, the control objectives have been achieved.     

Control of a class of fractional-order chaotic systems via sliding mode

This paper investigates the chaos control of a class of fractional-order chaotic systems via sliding mode. First, the sliding mode control law is derived to make the states of the fractional-order chaotic systems asymptotically stable. Second, the designed control scheme guarantees asymptotical stability of the uncertain fractional-order chaotic systems in the presence of an external disturbance. Finally, simulation results are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed sliding mode control method.     

Periodic and chaotic dynamics of a sliding driven oscillator with dry friction

We have performed a numerical study of the dynamics of a harmonically forced sliding oscillator with two degrees of freedom and dry friction. The study of the four-dimensional dynamical system corresponding to the two non-linear motion equations can be reduced, in this case, to the study of a three-dimensional Poincaré map. The behaviour of the system has been investigated calculating bifurcation diagrams, time series, periodic and chaotic attractors and basins of attraction. Furthermore, a systematic study of the stability of periodic solutions and their bifurcations has been carried out applying the Floquet theory. The results show rich dynamics being very sensitive to the changes in forcing amplitudes (control parameter), where periodic and chaotic states alternatively appear. It is shown how the system exhibits different types of bifurcational phenomena (saddle-node, symmetry-breaking, period-doubling cascades and intermittent transitions to chaos) into relatively narrow intervals of the control parameter. Moreover, a collection of chaotic attractors was computed to show the evolution of the chaotic regime. Finally, basins of attraction were calculated. In all the cases studied, the basins exhibit fractal structure boundaries and, when more of two attractors are coexisting, we have found Wada basin boundaries.     

Analysis of a new three-dimensional system with multiple chaotic attractors

In this paper, a new three-dimensional autonomous system with complex dynamical behaviors is reported. This new system has three quadratic nonlinear terms and one constant term. One remarkable feature of the system is that it can generate multiple chaotic and multiple periodic attractors in a wide range of system parameters. The presence of coexisting chaotic and periodic attractors in the system is investigated. Moreover, it is easily found that the new system also can generate four-scroll chaotic attractor. Some basic dynamical behaviors of the system are investigated through theoretical analysis and numerical simulation.     

Complex modified projective synchronization of two chaotic complex nonlinear systems

In this paper, we present a novel type of synchronization called complex modified projective synchronization (CMPS) and study it to a system of two chaotic complex nonlinear 3-dimensional flows, possessing chaotic attractors. Based on the Lyapunov function approach, a scheme is designed to achieve CMPS for such pairs of (either identical or different) complex systems. Analytical expressions for the complex control functions are derived using this scheme to achieve CMPS. This type of complex synchronization is considered as a generalization of several kinds of synchronization that have appeared in the recent literature. The master and slave chaotic complex systems achieved CMPS can be synchronized through the use of a complex scale matrix. The effectiveness of the obtained results is illustrated by a studying two examples of such coupled chaotic attractors in the complex domain. Numerical results are plotted to show the rapid convergence of modulus errors to zero, thus demonstrating that CMPS is efficiently achieved.

Adaptive impulsive synchronization of uncertain drive-response complex-variable chaotic systems

In this paper, impulsive synchronization of drive-response complex-variable chaotic systems is investigated. The drive-response systems with known parameters is considered via impulsive control and adaptive scheme as well as systems with unknown parameters. Noticeably, adaptive strategy is adopted to relax the restriction on the impulsive interval, and the system parameters need not to be known beforehand. According to the Lyapunov stability theory, some synchronization criteria are derived and verified by several numerical simulations.     

Anti-synchronization between identical and non-identical fractional-order chaotic systems using active control method

This article deals with the anti-synchronization between two identical chaotic fractional-order Qi system, Genesio–Tesi system, and also between two different fractional-order Genesio–Tesi and Qi systems using active control method. The chaotic attractors of the systems are found for fractional-order time derivatives described in Caputo sense. Numerical simulation results which are carried out using Adams–Boshforth–Moulton method show that the method is reliable and effective for anti-synchronization of nonlinear dynamical evolutionary systems.     

A more chaotic and easily hardware implementable new 3-D chaotic system in comparison with 50 reported systems

This paper attempts to construct a new 3-D chaotic system which is easily hardware realisable and fulfil the requirement of a real-life application. The proposed system is relatively more chaotic (based on the first Lyapunov exponent) and has larger bandwidth than 50 available chaotic systems. Lyapunov spectrum and bifurcation diagram of the system reveal that it has chaotic behaviour for a wider range of its parameters. Such characteristic is helpful for an easy hardware realisation of the system. It is to be noted that the reported systems with hidden attractors are not considered here for the comparison. The proposed system has more complexity and disorder due to several unique properties like asymmetry to principle coordinates, dissimilar and asymmetrical equilibria, and non-uniform contraction and expansion of volume in phase space. The proposed system also exhibits asymmetric pairs of coexisting attractors during its operation in two modes. The new system has different routes to chaos including crisis, an inverse crisis, period-doubling and reverse period-doubling routes to chaos with the variation of parameters. MATLAB simulation results confirm the claims, and the results of hardware circuit realisation validate the simulation results. An application of the new system is shown by masking and retrieving an information signal. It is also shown that the proposed system is better than a well-known Lorenz chaotic system for this application. A system with the above unique properties is rare in the literature.     

Absolute term introduced to rebuild the chaotic attractor with constant Lyapunov exponent spectrum

When positive or negative feedback of absolute terms are introduced in dynamic equations of improved chaotic system with constant Lyapunov exponent spectrum, diverse structures of chaotic attractors can be rebuilt, numbers of novel attractors found and subsequently the dynamical behavior property analyzed. Drawing on the concept of global phase reversal and its implementation methods, three main features are discussed and a systematic conclusion is made, that is, the unique class of chaotic system which utilizes merely absolute terms to realize nonlinear function possesses the following three properties: adjustable amplitude, adjustable phase reversal and constant Lyapunov exponent spectrum.     

A Simple Chaotic Circuit with Impulsive Switch Depending on Time and State

This paper presents a simple chaotic circuit consisting of two capacitors, one linear two-port VCCS and one time-state-controlled impulsive switch. The impulsive switch causes rich chaotic and periodic behavior. The circuit dynamics can be simplified into a one-dimensional return map that is piecewise linear and piecewise monotone. Using the return map, we clarify parameter conditions for existence of chaotic and periodic attractors and coexistence state of attractors.
