Abstract

The implications of large fluctuations of finite-time Lyapunov exponents are discussed for nonchaotic systems. We show that for a nonchaotic system driven by quasiperiodic force, if its finite-time Lyapunov exponents periodically become positive, the resulting attractor can be strange but nonchaotic. With long enough expanding time intervals, a nearly periodic force can also lead to strange nonchaotic attractors. For the case of a periodic force, a special typical periodic attractor that is sensitive to micronoise is obtained. With the different finite computing precisions, different pseudoperiodic orbits can be obtained.
