Stochastic resonance induced by fluctuation in liquid membrane oscillator without input signals.
We investigated numerically the dynamic behavior of the oil/water liquid membrane, which is a promising model for excitable bio-membrane. When we use noise to modulate the parameters in simulation, noise-induced coherent oscillation is observed. With the increment of the noise intensity, the coherence of noise-induced oscillation can go through a maximum, which indicating the occurrence of stochastic resonance (SR) without input signals. We compared the SR effects under the condition that noise is added to different control parameters. When noise was added to both of the parameters, a complicated SR-like phenomemon was observed. The interaction of coherent SRs induced by two independent noises is discussed. The possibly constructive role of noise in some sensory cells is discussed also.
