The evolution of spatio-temporal disorder in a chain of unidirectionally-coupled Chua's circuits

The nonlinear dynamics of a chain of unidirectionally coupled Chua's circuits is investigated. The nonlinearity is chosen to be smooth and the coupling between cells in the chain is linear. The phenomena of oscillatory spectrum complication along the chain caused by developing instabilities, suppression of oscillations, and chaotic synchronization of the cells are demonstrated.<
