Chapter 1: The birth of the Chua's circuit (6,292k)

Since the birth of the Chua circuit in 1983, a considerable number of fruitful, fascinating and relevant research topics have arisen. In honor of the 25th anniversary of the invention of Chua's circuit, this book presents the 25 years of research on the implementation of Chua's circuit, and also discusses future directions and emerging applications of recent results.

The purpose of the book is to provide researchers, PhD students, and undergraduate students a research monograph containing both fundamentals on the topics and advanced results that have been recently obtained. With about 60 illustrations included in the book, it also shows the detailed schematics of several different implementations that can be easily reproduced with a low-cost experimental setup and PC-based measurement instrumentation.

• The Birth of Chua's Circuit
