Theoretical and experimental time series analysis of an inductorless Chua's circuit

摘要

In this paper we have analyzed the time series obtained from an experimental realization of an inductorless version of Chua's circuit. We have also compared the experimental results with the results emerging by analysis of the time series obtained by numerical simulations of the respective model equations. Lyapunov exponent spectra, the Kaplan-Yorke dimension and phase-space diagrams were used to show the similarities between theoretical and experimental results. We were able to identify the effects of the operational amplifier simulated inductor internal resistance on the Chua's circuit dynamics. Decreasing internal resistance for decreasing current through the circuit was responsible for the observed bifurcation route. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
