A fractional-order ship power system: chaos and its dynamical properties

摘要

In this research, the ship power system is studied with a fractional-order approach. A 2-D model of a two-generator parallel-connected is considered. A chaotic attractor is observed for particular parameter values. The fractional-order form is calculated with the Adam-Bashforth-Moulton method. The chaotic response is identified even for the order 0.99. Phase portrait is generated using the Caputo derivative approach. Wolf's algorithm is used to calculate Lyapunov exponents. For the considered values of parameters, one positive Lyapunov exponent confirms the existence of chaos. Bifurcation diagrams are presented to analyze the various dynamical behaviors and bifurcation points. Interestingly, the considered system is multistable. Also, antimonotonicity, period-doubling, and period halving are observed in the bifurcation diagram. As the last step, a fractional-order controller is designed to remove chaotic dynamics. Time plots are simulated to show the effectiveness of the controller.
