Desynchronization of coupled electrochemical oscillators with pulse stimulations.
Various stimulation desynchronization techniques are explored in a laboratory experiment on electrochemical oscillators, a system that exhibits transient dynamics, heterogeneities, and inherent noise. Stimulation with a short, single pulse applied at a vulnerable phase can effectively desynchronize a cluster. A double pulse method, that can be applied at any phase, can be improved either by adding an extra weak pulse between the original two pulses or by adding noise to the first pulse.
