3-scroll and 4-scroll chaotic attractors generated from a new 3-D quadratic autonomous system

This article introduces a new chaotic system of 3-D quadratic autonomous ordinary differential equations, which can display 2-scroll chaotic attractors. Some basic dynamical behaviors of the new 3-D system are investigated. Of particular interest is that the chaotic system can generate complex 3-scroll and 4-scroll chaotic attractors. Finally, bifurcation analysis shows that the system can display extremely rich dynamics. The obtained results clearly show that this is a new chaotic system which deserves further detailed investigation.
