Abstract

Controlling chaos in the Lorenz system with a controllable Rayleigh number is investigated by the state space exact linearization method. Based on proving the exact linearizability, the nonlinear feedback is utilized to design the transformation changing the original chaotic system into a linear controllable one so that the control is realized. Numerical examples of control are presented.
