Locally active memristors with multiple coexisting pinched hysteresis loops have attracted the attention of researchers. However, the currently reported multiple coexisting pinched hysteresis loops memristors are obtained by adding additional piecewise-linear terms into the original Chua corsage memristor. This paper proposes a novel locally active memristor by introducing a polynomial characteristic function into the state equation. The novel memristor has three coexisting pinched hysteresis loops, large relative range of active region and simple emulator circuit. The characteristics of the novel memristor such as power-off plot, coexisting pinched hysteresis loops and DC V – I plot are studied. The memristor is used in a Chua chaotic system to investigate the effects of locally active characteristic on the chaotic oscillation system. Furthermore, the memristor emulator and chaotic system are designed and implemented by commercial circuit elements. The hardware experiments are consistent with numerical simulations.

In this paper, a simple four-wing chaotic attractor is first proposed by replacing the constant parameters of the Chen system with a periodic piecewise function. Then, a new 4D four-wing memristive hyperchaotic system is presented by adding a flux-controlled memristor with linear memductance into the proposed four-wing Chen system. The memristor mathematical structure model is simple and easy to implement. Dynamical analysis and numerical simulation of the memristive hyperchaotic system are carried out. Then, the electronic circuit of the hyperchaotic system is designed and implemented. The results of numerical simulation are in good agreement with the electronic circuit experiment. In addition, shape synchronization control for the 4D four-wing memristive hyperchaotic system is realized, and a communication system is designed by using the shape synchronization method. Finally, secure signal masking application is implemented on Matlab platform. In the developed secure communication scheme, the information signal overlaps with the chaotic masking signal, which improves the security of the system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

By replacing the resistor in a Twin-T network with a generalized flux-controlled memristor, this paper proposes a simple fourth-order memristive Twin-T oscillator. Rich dynamical behaviors can be observed in the dynamical system. The most striking feature is that this system has various periodic orbits and various chaotic attractors generated by adjusting parameter . At the same time, coexisting attractors and antimonotonicity are also detected (especially, two full Feigenbaum remerging trees in series are observed in such autonomous chaotic systems). Their dynamical features are analyzed by phase portraits, Lyapunov exponents, bifurcation diagrams and basin of attraction. Moreover, hardware experiments on a breadboard are carried out. Experimental measurements are in accordance with the simulation results. Finally, a multi-channel random bit generator is designed for encryption applications. Numerical results illustrate the usefulness of the random bit generator. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, a flux-controlled memristor with linear memductance is proposed. Compared with the memristor with piecewise linear memductance and the memristor with smooth continuous nonlinearity memductance which are widely used in the study of memristive chaotic system, the proposed memristor has simple mathematical model and is easy to implement. Multisim circuit simulation and breadboard experiment are realized, and the memristor can exhibit a pinched hysteresis loop in the voltage-current plane when driven by a periodic voltage. In addition, a new hyper-chaotic system is presented in this paper by adding the proposed memristor into the Lorenz system. The transient chaos and multiple attractors are observed in this memristive system. The dynamical behaviors of the proposed system are analyzed by equilibria, Lyapunov exponents, bifurcation diagram and phase portrait. Finally, an electronic circuit is designed to implement the hyper-chaotic memristive system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A memristor is the fourth circuit element, which has wide applications in chaos generation. In this paper, a four-dimensional hyperchaotic jerk system based on a memristor is proposed, where the scroll number of the memristive jerk system is controllable. The new system is constructed by introducing one extra flux-controlled memristor into three-dimensional multiscroll jerk system. We can get different scroll attractors by varying the strength of memristor in this system without changing the circuit structure. Such a method for controlling the scroll number without changing the circuit structure is very important in designing the modern circuits and systems. The new memristive jerk system can exhibit a hyperchaotic attractor, which has more complex dynamic behavior. Furthermore, coexisting attractors are observed in the system. Phase portraits, dissipativity, equilibria, Lyapunov exponents and bifurcation diagrams are analyzed. Finally, the circuit implementation is carried out to verify the new system.

By adding only one smooth flux-controlled memristor into a three-dimensional (3D) pseudo four-wing chaotic system, a new real four-wing hyperchaotic system is constructed in this paper. It is interesting to see that this new memristive chaotic system can generate a four-wing hyperchaotic attractor with a line of equilibria. Moreover, it can generate two-, three- and four-wing chaotic attractors with the variation of a single parameter which denotes the strength of the memristor. At the same time, various coexisting multiple attractors (e.g. three-wing attractors, four-wing attractors and attractors with state transition under the same system parameters) are observed in this system, which means that extreme multistability arises. The complex dynamical behaviors of the proposed system are analyzed by Lyapunov exponents (LEs), phase portraits, Poincaré maps, and time series. An electronic circuit is finally designed to implement the hyperchaotic memristive system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, a new memristor is proposed, and then an emulator built from off-the-shelf solid state components imitating the behavior of the proposed memristor is presented. Multisim simulation and breadboard experiment are done on the emulator, exhibiting a pinched hysteresis loop in the voltage-current plane when the emulator is driven by a periodic excitation voltage. In addition, a new simple chaotic circuit is designed by using the proposed memristor and other circuit elements. It is exciting that this circuit with only a linear negative resistor, a capacitor, an inductor and a memristor can generate a chaotic attractor. The dynamical behaviors of the proposed chaotic system are analyzed by Lyapunov exponents, phase portraits and bifurcation diagrams. Finally, an electronic circuit is designed to implement the chaotic system. For the sake of simple circuit topology, the proposed chaotic circuit can be easily manufactured at low cost.
