Control of noise-induced oscillations of a pendulum with a rondomly vibrating suspension axis
(1997)
Doubly stochastic resonance
(2000)
We report the effect of doubly stochastic resonance which appears in nonlinear extended systems if the influence of noise is twofold: A multiplicative noise induces bimodality of the mean field of the coupled network and an independent additive noise governs the dynamic behavior in response to small periodic driving. For optimally selected values of the additive noise intensity stochastic resonance is observed, which is manifested by a maximal coherence between the dynamics of the mean field and the periodic input. Numerical simulations of the signal-to-noise ratio and theoretical results from an effective two state model are in good quantitative agreement.
The effect of additive noise on transitions in nonlinear systems far from equilibrium is studied. It is shown that additive noise in itself can induce a hidden phase transition, which is similar to the transition induced by multiplicative noise in a nonlinear oscillator [P. Landa and A. Zaikin, Phys. Rev. E 54, 3535 (1996)]. Investigation of different nonlinear models that demonstrate phase transitions induced by multiplicative noise shows that the influence of additive noise upon such phase transitions can be crucial: additive noise can either blur such a transition or stabilize noise-induced oscillations.
We have recently reported the phenomenon of doubly stochastic resonance [Phys. Rev. Lett. 85, 227 (2000)], a synthesis of noise-induced transition and stochastic resonance. The essential feature of this phenomenon is that multiplicative noise induces a bimodality and additive noise causes stochastic resonance behavior in the induced structure. In the present paper we outline possible applications of this effect and design a simple lattice of electronic circuits for the experimental realization of doubly stochastic resonance.
