摘要：Considering the fact that the memory in economic series changes with dynamic economic environment, this paper is devoted to the proposal of a variable-order fractional van der Pol model (VOFVDPM), where the order of the derivative is replaced by a time-dependent function. A numeric scheme for this model is designed by the Adams-Bashforth-Moulton method. The dynamic behaviors of the VOFVDPM with linear and periodic variable-order functions are investigated through numerical experiment. Some dynamic characteristics of the VOFVDPM that do not exist in a fractional order van der Pol model are discovered in the numerical simulation, such as existing limit point when the linear order functions have the same ranges and opposite slopes.
