This paper presents a fuzzy controller to solve a master-slave chaos synchronization problem. At first, the method of traditional sliding mode control is considered, which utilizes the discontinuous sign function to make the system state reaching a sliding surface. Next, fuzzy rules are determined according to the Lyapunov theorem, and the fuzzy controller is designed for chaos synchronization....

This paper concerns global phase structures of a time-delayed-feedback controlled two-well Duffing system. The remains of a global stretch and fold structure along an unstable manifold, which develops from an unstable fixed point in function space, reveals that the global chaotic dynamics is inherited from the original system by the controlled system. The remains of the original chaotic dynamic...

Smale horseshoes, curvilinear rectangles and their U-shaped images patterned on Smale’s famous example, provide a rigorous way to study chaos in dynamical systems. The paper is devoted to constructing them in two-dimensional diffeomorphisms with the existence of transversal homoclinic saddles. We first propose an algorithm to automatically construct “horizontal” and “vertical” sides of the curv...

The dynamics of a two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear system consisting of a grounded Duffing oscillator coupled to an essentially nonlinear attachment is examined in the present study. The underlying Hamiltonian system is first considered, and its nonlinear normal modes are computed using numerical continuation and gathered in a frequencyenergy plot. Based on these results, the damped system is th...

We propose a scheme to induce chaos in nonlinear oscillators that either are by themselves incapable of exhibiting chaos or are far away from parameter regions of chaotic behaviors. Our idea is to make use of small, judiciously chosen perturbations in the form of weak periodic signals with time-varying frequency and phase, and to drive the system into a hierarchy of nonlinear resonant states an...

We study analytically and numerically the noise-induced transition between an absorbing and an oscillatory state in a Duffing oscillator subject to multiplicative, Gaussian white noise. We show in a non-perturbative manner that a stochastic bifurcation occurs when the Lyapunov exponent of the linearised system becomes positive. We deduce from a simple formula for the Lyapunov exponent the phase...
