Analysis of Novel 4D Rabinovich-Fabrikant Continuous Dynamical System with Coexistence Attractors

In this paper a new Rabinovitch-Fabrikant (R-F) four dimensional (4D) continuous time dynamical system was generated from three dimensional (3D) Rabinovitch-Fabrikant dynamical system using the state augmentation technique by adding new state variables u. The system employs thirteen terms includes five cross-product terms and one irreversible function. The dynamical behaviors of the system were investigated which include equilibrium points, stability analysis, wave form analysis, phase space analysis, multistability, Hopf-bifurcation, the Lyapunov exponent and Lyapunov dimension. The values of Lyapunov exponents are:L1 = 14.025946, L2 = 0.295151, L3 = −2.854401, L4 = −13.736833. and Lyapunov dimension is (3.83474), so the system is unstable and hyperchaotic with coexistence attractors. Chaos was handled in two ways: adaptive control and adaptive synchronization, it was found that the new system is stable and achieved good results.
