In this contribution, a novel memristor-based oscillator, obtained from Shinriki's circuit by substituting the nonlinear positive conductance with a first order memristive diode bridge, is introduced. The model is described by a continuous time four-dimensional autonomous system with smooth nonlinearities. The basic dynamical properties of the system are investigated including equilibria and stability, phase portraits, frequency spectra, bifurcation diagrams, and Lyapunov exponents' spectrum. It is found that in addition to the classical period-doubling and symmetry restoring crisis scenarios reported in the original circuit, the memristor-based oscillator experiences the unusual and striking feature of multiple attractors (i.e., coexistence of a pair of asymmetric periodic attractors with a pair of asymmetric chaotic ones) over a broad range of circuit parameters. Results of theoretical analyses are verified by laboratory experimental measurements.
In this paper, a novel autonomous RC chaotic jerk circuit is introduced and the corresponding dynamics is systematically investigated. The circuit consists of opamps, resistors, capacitors and a pair of semiconductor diodes connected in anti-parallel to synthesize the nonlinear component necessary for chaotic oscillations. The model is described by a continuous time three-dimensional autonomous system with hyperbolic sine nonlinearity, and may be viewed as a linear transformation of model MO15 previously introduced in [Sprott, 2010]. The structure of the equilibrium points and the discrete symmetries of the model equations are discussed. The bifurcation analysis indicates that chaos arises via the usual paths of period-doubling and symmetry restoring crisis. One of the key contributions of this work is the finding of a region in the parameter space in which the proposed (“elegant”) jerk circuit exhibits the unusual and striking feature of multiple attractors (i.e. coexistence of four disconnected periodic and chaotic attractors). Laboratory experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical predictions.
In this contribution, the problem of multistability control in a simple model of 3D HNNs as well as its application to biomedical image encryption is addressed. The space magnetization is justified by the coexistence of up to six disconnected attractors including both chaotic and periodic.
The linear augmentation method is successfully applied to control the multistable HNNs into a monostable network. The control of the coexisting four attractors including a pair of chaotic attractors and a pair of periodic attractors is made through three crises that enable the chaotic attractors to be metamorphosed in a monostable periodic attractor. Also, the control of six coexisting attractors (with two pairs of chaotic attractors and a pair of periodic one) is made through five crises enabling all the chaotic attractors to be metamorphosed in a monostable periodic attractor. Note that this controlled HNN is obtained for higher values of the coupling strength. These interesting results are obtained using nonlinear analysis tools such as the phase portraits, bifurcations diagrams, graph of maximum Lyapunov exponent, and basins of attraction. The obtained results have been perfectly supported using the PSPICE simulation environment. Finally, a simple encryption scheme is designed jointly using the sequences of the proposed HNNs and the sequences of real/imaginary values of the Julia fractals set. The obtained cryptosystem is validated using some well-known metrics. The proposed method achieved entropy of 7.9992, NPCR of 99.6299, and encryption time of 0.21 for the 256*256 sample 1 image.
