A new multi-stable fractional-order four-dimensional system with self-excited and hidden chaotic attractors: Dynamic analysis and adaptive synchronization using a novel fuzzy adaptive sliding mode control method

Journal article

Four-dimensional chaotic systems are a very interesting topic for researchers, given their special features. This paper presents a novel fractional-order four-dimensional chaotic system with self-excited and hidden attractors, which includes only one constant term. The proposed system presents the phenomenon of multi-stability, which means that two or more different dynamics are generated from different initial conditions. It is one of few published works in the last five years belonging to the aforementioned category. Using Lyapunov exponents, the chaotic behavior of the dynamical system is characterized, and the sensitivity of the system to initial conditions is determined. Also, systematic studies of the hidden chaotic behavior in the proposed system are performed using phase portraits and bifurcation transition diagrams. Moreover, a design technique of a new fuzzy adaptive sliding mode control (FASMC) for synchronization of the fractional-order systems has been offered. This control technique combines an adaptive regulation scheme and a fuzzy logic controller with conventional sliding mode control for the synchronization of fractional-order systems. Applying Lyapunov stability theorem, the proposed control technique ensures that the master and slave chaotic systems are synchronized in the presence of dynamic uncertainties and external disturbances. The proposed control technique not only provides high performance in the presence of the dynamic uncertainties and external disturbances, but also avoids the phenomenon of chattering. Simulation results have been presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the presented control scheme.
