A novel Caputo fractional operator introduces new chaotic dynamics in physical models. Adjusting its parameter generates complex attractors, unlike classic fractional operators which yield non-chaotic states.
Area of Science:
- Nonlinear Dynamics
- Fractional Calculus
- Physical Systems Modeling
Background:
- Understanding phase transitions in physical models is crucial for describing system dynamics.
- Fractional calculus offers advanced tools for modeling complex phenomena.
Purpose of the Study:
- Investigate the impact of a new Caputo fractional operator on the dynamics of two physical models.
- Explore the influence of a tunable fractional parameter on dynamical patterns.
Main Methods:
- Introduced a new Caputo fractional operator and its associated Riemann-Liouville fractional integral.
- Proved key properties and lemmas for the new fractional operator and integral.
- Analyzed the fractional modified autonomous Van der Pol-Duffing and Liu systems.
Main Results:
- The new fractional operator, with its additional parameter, induced diverse chaotic attractors.
- The fractional Van der Pol-Duffing system displayed one-band, double-band chaos, and periodic cycles.
- The fractional Liu system exhibited double scroll, self-excited, and hidden chaotic attractors.
Conclusions:
- The new Caputo fractional operator effectively generates complex chaotic dynamics in physical models.
- The operator's parameter is key to producing chaotic attractors, contrasting with classic operators.
