In this paper, we present a new method for chaos generation in nonautonomous impulsive systems. We prove the presence of chaos in the sense of Li-Yorke by implementing chaotic perturbations. An impulsive Duffing oscillator is used to show the effectiveness of our technique, and simulations that support the theoretical results are depicted. Moreover, a procedure to stabilize the unstable periodic solutions is proposed.
