Design of time delayed chaotic circuit with threshold controller

A novel time delayed chaotic oscillator exhibiting mono- and double scroll complex chaotic attractors is designed. This circuit consists of only a few operational amplifiers and diodes and employs a threshold controller for flexibility. It efficiently implements a piecewise linear function. The control of piecewise linear function facilitates controlling the shape of the attractors. This is demonstrated by constructing the phase portraits of the attractors through numerical simulations and hardware experiments. Based on these studies, we find that this circuit can produce multi-scroll chaotic attractors by just introducing more number of threshold values.Comment: 21 pages, 12 figures; Submitted to IJB

On new chaotic and hyperchaotic systems: A literature survey

This paper provides a thorough survey of new chaotic and hyperchaotic systems. An analysis of the dynamic behavior of these complex systems is presented by pointing out their originality and elementary characteristics. Recently, such systems have been increasingly used in various fields such as secure communication, encryption and finance and so on. In practice, each field requires specific performances with peculiar complexity. A particular classification is then proposed in this paper based on the Lyapunov exponent, the equilibriums points and the attractor forms

A locally active discrete memristor model and its application in a hyperchaotic map

© 2022 Springer Nature Switzerland AG. Part of Springer Nature. This is the accepted manuscript version of an article which has been published in final form at https://doi.org/10.1007/s11071-021-07132-5The continuous memristor is a popular topic of research in recent years, however, there is rare discussion about the discrete memristor model, especially the locally active discrete memristor model. This paper proposes a locally active discrete memristor model for the first time and proves the three fingerprints characteristics of this model according to the definition of generalized memristor. A novel hyperchaotic map is constructed by coupling the discrete memristor with a two-dimensional generalized square map. The dynamical behaviors are analyzed with attractor phase diagram, bifurcation diagram, Lyapunov exponent spectrum, and dynamic behavior distribution diagram. Numerical simulation analysis shows that there is significant improvement in the hyperchaotic area, the quasi-periodic area and the chaotic complexity of the two-dimensional map when applying the locally active discrete memristor. In addition, antimonotonicity and transient chaos behaviors of system are reported. In particular, the coexisting attractors can be observed in this discrete memristive system, resulting from the different initial values of the memristor. Results of theoretical analysis are well verified with hardware experimental measurements. This paper lays a great foundation for future analysis and engineering application of the discrete memristor and relevant the study of other hyperchaotic maps.Peer reviewedFinal Accepted Versio

Finite-Time Synchronization of the Rabinovich and Rabinovich-Fabrikant Chaotic Systems for Different Evolvable Parameters

This paper addresses the challenge of synchronizing the dynamics of two distinct 3D chaotic systems, specifically the Rabinovich and Rabinovich-Fabrikant systems, employing a finite-time synchronization approach. These chaotic systems exhibit diverse characteristics and evolving chaotic attractors, influenced by specific parameters and initial conditions. Our proposed low-cost finite-time synchronization method leverages the signum function's tracking properties to facilitate controlled coupling within a finite time frame. The design of finite-time control laws is rooted in Lyapunov stability criteria and lemmas. Numerical experiments conducted within the MATLAB simulation environment demonstrate the successful asymptotic synchronization of the master and slave systems within finite time. To assess the global robustness of our control scheme, we applied it across various system parameters and initial conditions. Remarkably, our results reveal consistent synchronization times and dynamics across these different scenarios. In summary, this study presents a finite-time synchronization solution for non-identical 3D chaotic systems, showcasing the potential for robust and reliable synchronization under varying conditions

Symmetry in Chaotic Systems and Circuits

Symmetry can play an important role in the field of nonlinear systems and especially in the design of nonlinear circuits that produce chaos. Therefore, this Special Issue, titled “Symmetry in Chaotic Systems and Circuits”, presents the latest scientific advances in nonlinear chaotic systems and circuits that introduce various kinds of symmetries. Applications of chaotic systems and circuits with symmetries, or with a deliberate lack of symmetry, are also presented in this Special Issue. The volume contains 14 published papers from authors around the world. This reflects the high impact of this Special Issue

A simple method for detecting chaos in nature

Chaos, or exponential sensitivity to small perturbations, appears everywhere in nature. Moreover, chaos is predicted to play diverse functional roles in living systems. A method for detecting chaos from empirical measurements should therefore be a key component of the biologist's toolkit. But, classic chaos-detection tools are highly sensitive to measurement noise and break down for common edge cases, making it difficult to detect chaos in domains, like biology, where measurements are noisy. However, newer tools promise to overcome these limitations. Here, we combine several such tools into an automated processing pipeline, and show that our pipeline can detect the presence (or absence) of chaos in noisy recordings, even for difficult edge cases. As a first-pass application of our pipeline, we show that heart rate variability is not chaotic as some have proposed, and instead reflects a stochastic process in both health and disease. Our tool is easy-to-use and freely available

A New Chaotic System with Line of Equilibria: Dynamics, Passive Control and Circuit Design

A new chaotic system with line equilibrium is introduced in this paper. This system consists of five terms with two transcendental nonlinearities and two quadratic nonlinearities. Various tools of dynamical system such as phase portraits, Lyapunov exponents, Kaplan-Yorke dimension, bifurcation diagram and Poincarè map are used. It is interesting that this system has a line of fixed points and can display chaotic attractors. Next, this paper discusses control using passive control method. One example is given to insure the theoretical analysis. Finally, for the  new chaotic system, An electronic circuit for realizing the chaotic system has been implemented. The numerical simulation by using MATLAB 2010 and implementation of circuit simulations by using MultiSIM 10.0 have been performed in this study
