Abstract
We present a technique to control chaos in Hamiltonian systems which are close to integrable. By adding a small and simple control term to the perturbation, the system becomes more regular than the original one. We apply this technique to a forced pendulum model and show numerically that the control is able to drastically reduce chaos.
