Multistable Systems with Hidden and Self-Excited Scroll Attractors Generated via Piecewise Linear Systems

Figure 2

Simulation of the system given by (1), (2), (4), and (30) with , and for the initial condition in blue. In (a) the surfaces are defined by (33) and (34), the simulation is shown for . (arbitrary units), and the trajectory converges to one of the self-excited attractors in red. In (b) the surfaces are defined by (35) and the simulation is shown for ., and the hidden attractor emerges.
