Pinning clustering component synchronization of nonlinearly coupled complex dynamical networks

Abstract

In this paper, the clustering component synchronization of nonlinearly coupled complex dynamical networks with nonidentical nodes was investigated. By applying feedback injections to those nodes who have connections with other clusters, some criteria for achieving clustering component synchronization were obtained. A numerical simulation was also included to verify the correctness of the results obtained.
