Hyperchaotic Oscillation in the Deformed Rikitake Two-Disc Dynamo System Induced by Memory Effect

Abstract

The fundamental dynamics of the deformed Rikitake two-disc dynamo system is explored in this paper. Memory effect on the dynamical behavior of the generator system is studied by introducing a quadratic flux-controlled memristor. Hyperchaotic oscillation in the deformed Rikitake two-disk coupled generator is therefore firstly found. Lyapunov exponents, bifurcation diagram, and phase portraits prove the abundant dynamic behavior consistently.
