CHAOS IN NONLINEAR OSCILLATORS: CONTROLLING AND SYNCHRONIZATION

by M Lakshmanan & K Murali (Bharathidasan University, Tiruchirapalli, India)

This book deals with the bifurcation and chaotic aspects of damped and driven nonlinear oscillators. The analytical and numerical aspects of the chaotic dynamics of these oscillators are covered, together with appropriate experimental studies using nonlinear electronic circuits. Recent exciting developments in chaos research are also discussed, such as the control and synchronization of chaos and possible technological applications.


Contents:

  • Introduction
  • Linear and Nonlinear Oscillators
  • Electronic Circuits as Oscillators and Analog Simulation of Dynamical Systems
  • Duffing Oscillator: Bifurcation and Chaos
  • Duffing Oscillator: Analytic Approaches
  • Bifurcation, Chaos and Phase-Looking in BVP and DVP Oscillators
  • Chaotic Oscillators with Chua's Diode
  • Controlling of Chaos
  • Synchronized Chaotic Systems and Secure Communications


Readership: Nonlinear scientists, physicists, chaos researchers and nonlinear circuits theorists.


"... the book offers a well-written, concise and serious introduction to a number of subjects which are areas of current research, enabling the reader to grasp the basic ideas and at the same time guiding her/him through the vast literature."
