Design of Grid Multi-Wing Butterfly Chaotic Attractors from Piecewise Lu System Based on Switching Control and Heteroclinic Orbit

Over the last two decades, multi-scroll chaos generation has seen promising advances and becomes an active research field. This paper initiates a novel approach to design various grid multi-wing butterfly chaotic attractors from piecewise Lu system based on switching control and heteroclinic orbit. It should be especially pointed out that these generating multi-wing chaotic attractors are chaotic in the sense of Smale horseshoe from Shilnikov theorem. Moreover, there are some potential engineering applications in the future because of the simplicity of the proposed design approach.
