In this brief, a new scheme is developed for chaos control by applying periodic impulsive parametric perturbations. Based on Melnikov's condition for the existence of chaos, it is mathematically proven that, in a neighborhood of a homoclinic orbit of the Duffing system, chaos can be suppressed. A sufficient condition is also established, serving as the design criterion for the amplitude and the width of the impulsive control signal. Finally, the control effect will clearly be demonstrated with simulation results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
