Shil’nikov chaos control using homoclinic orbits and the Newhouse region

A method of controlling Shil’nikov’s type chaos using windows that appear in the 1-dimensional bifurcation diagram when perturbations are applied, and using existence of stable homoclinic orbits near the unstable one is presented and applied to the electronic Chua’s circuit. A demonstration of the chaos control in the electronic circuit experiments and their simulations and bifurcation analyses are given.
