Abstract: By using the idea of open-plus-closed-loop(OPCL) control, a controller composed of an external excitation and a linear feedback is designed to entrain chaotic trajectories of Mathieu-Duffing oscillator to its periodic and higher periodic orbits. The global basin of entrainment of this open-plus-closed-loop control is proved by combining the Lyapunov stability theory with a comparative theorem of initial value problems for second-order ordinary differential equations. Numerical simulations are performed to verify the theoretical results.
