A few special chaotic systems without unstable equilibrium points have been investigated recently. It is worth noting that these special systems are different from normal chaotic ones because the classical Shilnikov criterion cannot be used to prove chaos of such systems. A novel unusual chaotic system without equilibrium is proposed in this work. We discover dynamical properties as well as the synchronization of the new system. Furthermore, a physical realization of the system without equilibrium is also implemented to illustrate its feasibility.
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.
