Chua´s circuit family

Chaos has been widely reported and studied using Chua´s circuit. This tutorial paper presents a generalization of this well-known chaotic circuit into a hugh 6-parameter family of potentially chaotic circuits, henceforth referred to a Chua´s Circuit Family. The highlight of this tutorial consists of a collection of three-dimensional phase portraits associated with two representative members of this family. These phase portraits show how the associated vector fields evolve from order into chaos.
