Altering oscillatory dynamics of an electrochemical system using external forcing
We report results (numerical and experimental) indicating control of observed oscillatory dynamics in an electrochemical system under the influence of superimposed sinusoidal forcing. By varying the frequency and amplitude of the external forcing (control parameters) not only were the chaotic dynamics converted to periodic states (controlling chaos via entrainment), but the period-1 (P1) behavior could also be transformed to oscillatory dynamics of higher periodicity (for example: P2). Therefore for appropriate values of control constants and nature of the unperturbed (periodic and/or chaotic) dynamics, a final state of either lower (chaos-->P1) or higher complexity (P1 -->P2) can be attained. Since no prior information regarding the system dynamics is required for implementation of the forcing control it is thus relevant for application to real systems.
