Chaos control of a fractional order modified coupled dynamos system

This paper analyzes some Routh-Hurwitz stability conditions generalized to the fractional order case, and discusses the stability region of the fractional order system. We analyze the chaotic behavior of the fractional order modified Coupled dynamos system concretely, and provide the conditions suppressing chaos to unstable equilibrium points, then use the feedback control method to control chaos in the fractional order modified coupled dynamos system. Numerical simulations show the effectiveness of the method. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
