Chua

Description

This is a 3D continuous system that exhibits chaos. Chua designed an electronic circuit with the expressed goal of exhibiting chaotic motion, and this system is obtained by rescaling the circuit units to simplify the form of the equation. [^Chua1992] The parameters are a, b, m0, and m1. Setting a = 15.6, m0 = -8/7 and m1 = -5/7, and varying the parameter b from b = 25 to b = 51, one observes a classic period-doubling bifurcation route to chaos. [^Chua2007]
