Mode transitions and wave propagation in a driven-dissipative Toda-Rayleigh ring.
A circular lattice (ring) of N electronic elements with Toda-type exponential interactions and Rayleigh-type dissipation is used to illustrate wave formation, propagation, and switching between wave modes. A methodology is provided to help controlling modes, thus allowing it to realize any of (N-1) different wave modes (including soliton-type modes) and the switching between them by means of a single control parameter.
