Abstract

This paper presents a periodically driven Rayleigh–Duffing-like system with the function x|x|. It is proven via the Melnikov function method that the quadratic function x|x| induces Smale horseshoes to the Rayleigh–Duffing-like system. The Rayleigh–Duffing-like oscillator with fractional order is also discussed, and results of computer simulation demonstrate the chaotic dynamic behaviors of the system. Furthermore, two fractional Rayleigh–Duffing-like systems are synchronized by active control technology, the method based on state observer and nonlinear feedback method. Numerical results validate the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed synchronization schemes.
