We study the transition to phase synchronization in two diffusively coupled, nonidentical Chua oscillators. In the experiments, depending on the used parameterization, we observe several distinct routes to phase synchronization, including states of either in-phase, out-of-phase, or antiphase synchronization, which may be intersected by an intermediate desynchronization regime with large fluctua...

Article history: Received 20 August 2015 Received in revised form 22 December 2015 Accepted 26 December 2015 Available online xxxx What individual factors predict success?We tested Chua and Rubenfeld's (2014) widely publicized “Triple Package” hypothesis that a tendency toward impulse control, personal insecurity, and a belief in the superiority of one's cultural or ethnic group combine to incr...

We consider the coupling of two nonidentical dynamical systems using an adaptive feedback linearization controller to achieve partial synchronization between the two systems. In addition we consider the case where an additional feedback signal exists between the two systems, which leads to bidirectional coupling. We demonstrate the stability of the adaptive controller, and use the example of co...

The work concerns using evolutionary methods to evolve melodic sequences, obtained through a music generative approach from Chua s circuit, a non-linear dynamic system, universal paradigm for studying chaos. The main idea was to investigate how to turn potential aesthetical musical forms, generated by chaotic attractors, in melodic patterns, according to the western musical tradition. A single ...

In this paper, a very recent chaos control method that stabilizes chaotic systems by introducing small perturbations in the system variables [l] and a new synchronization method that reproduces the driving signal with a single connection [2] are simultaneously applied t o small networks of chaotic electronic circuits ( the Chua circuits [3]) . \ire stabilize a Chua circuit (which acts as drive ...

We report experimental observations of Shil'nikov-type homoclinic chaos and mixed-mode oscillations in asymmetry-induced Chua's oscillator. The asymmetry plays a crucial role in the related homoclinic bifurcation. The asymmetry is introduced in the Chua circuit by forcing a dc voltage. Then by tuning a control parameter, we observed transition from large amplitude limit cycle to homoclinic chao...
