A novel application of active chaos is presented in this contribution. It will be shown how chaotic behavior allows to address the energy flows in complex networks of linear oscillators. Starting from recent results, this contribution focuses on complex networks of RLC oscillators coupled through time-varying capacitors. The capacitances, in fact, are subjected to an external chaotic signal which induces fluctuations in their values and drives the energy flow in the network. The role of symmetries in the topology is also investigated with respect to energy flow control.

Abstract
A novel application of active chaos is presented in this contribution. It will be shown how chaotic behavior allows to address the energy flows in complex networks of linear oscillators. Starting from recent results, this contribution focuses on complex networks of RLC oscillators coupled through time-varying capacitors. The capacitances, in fact, are subjected to an external chaotic signal which induces fluctuations in their values and drives the energy flow in the network. The role of symmetries in the topology is also investigated with respect to energy flow control. The results presented in this contribution allows to outline an energy control strategy in complex networks based on chaos.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
