Abstract

Melnikov-method-based theoretical results are demonstrated concerning the relative effectiveness of any two weak excitations in suppressing homoclinic/heteroclinic chaos of a relevant class of dissipative, low-dimensional and non-autonomous systems for the main resonance between the chaos-inducing and chaos-suppressing excitations. General analytical expressions are derived from the analysis of generic Melnikov functions providing the boundaries of the regions as well as the enclosed area in the amplitude/initial phase plane of the chaos-suppressing excitation where homoclinic/heteroclinic chaos is inhibited. The relevance of the theoretical results on chaotic attractor elimination is confirmed by means of Lyapunov exponent calculations for a two-well Duffing oscillator.
