AI Article Synopsis

  • The study examines how an array of nondiagonally coupled oscillators synchronize under different conditions.
  • Experimental results reveal a phenomenon called ragged synchronizability, indicating that there are multiple isolated regions in which synchronization occurs based on coupling strength.
  • This finding was confirmed through both actual experiments with van der Pol's oscillators and numerical simulations, showing consistent results between the two methods.

Article Abstract

Synchronization thresholds of an array of nondiagonally coupled oscillators are investigated. We present experimental results which show the existence of ragged synchronizability, i.e., the existence of multiple disconnected synchronization regions in the coupling parameter space. This phenomenon has been observed in an electronic implementation of an array of nondiagonally coupled van der Pol's oscillators. Numerical simulations show good agreement with the experimental observations.

Ragged synchronizability of coupled oscillators.

We discuss synchronization thresholds in an array of nondiagonally coupled oscillators. We argue that nondiagonal coupling can cause the appearance or disappearance of desynchronous windows in the coupling parameter space. Such a phenomenon is independent of the motion character (periodic or chaotic) of the isolated node system.
