Control of spatio-temporal chaos in continuous time coupled systems by using adaptive fuzzy control

An adaptive fuzzy control scheme is presented to control model unknown coup led spatio-temporal chaos composed of high-dimensional continuous-time subs ystems. This method integrates the merits of approximate ability of adaptiv e fuzzy system and robustness of the sliding control. By using Lyapunov met hod we have proved the stability of the scheme. The effectiveness and the f easibility of the proposed method are demonstrated through simulations on t he continuous time coupled Duffing oscillator spatio-temoral chaos.
