Abstract

A boundary crisis is a catastrophic event in which a chaotic attractor is suddenly destroyed, leaving a nonattracting chaotic saddle in its place in the phase space. Based on the controlling-chaos idea [E. Ott, C. Grebogi, and J. A. Yorke, Phys. Rev. Lett. 64, 1196 (1990)], we present a method for stabilizing chaotic trajectories on the chaotic saddle by applying only small parameter perturbations. This strategy enables us to convert transient chaos into sustained chaos, thereby restoring attracting chaotic motion.
