Abstract
AbstractDespite the ubiquity of physical systems evolving on time-dependent spatial domains, understanding their regular and chaotic dynamics is still in a rudimentary state. While chaos implies that the system’s behavior can be altered by small perturbations, this sensitivity proves to be useful for control purposes. Here we report on the experimental discovery of a novel mechanism to control chaos by time-variation of the system (spatial domain) size: depending upon the rate of the latter, the chaotic state may be completely prevented. Our experimental observations are disentangled with theoretical insights and numerical modeling, which also reveals the ability to control spatio-temporal chaos, thus making the findings relevant to a wide range of natural phenomena.
