On the Phase Dynamics in the BZ Reaction
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have studied the phase dynamics in an oscillatory chemical system (Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction). The phase distribution and isophase lines in the 2D phase space were reconstructed. The dynamics proved to be well described in terms of the Burgers equation. The phase dependence of the coefficients of the equation was taken into account to estimate the region of the applicability of the Burgers equation.

Dynamics of the Oscillation Phase Distribution in the BZ Reaction
Oscillation phase dynamics in the homogeneous autooscillating Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction has been studied by computer simulations. The wave dynamics in autooscillating media is qualitatively di erent from those in excitable media for su ciently long waves. We propose a classi cation of chemical waves which is based on the analysis of shape of the dispersion curve. This delimits conventi...

متن کاملControlling chemical oscillations in heterogeneous Belousov-Zhabotinsky gels via mechanical strain.
We performed theoretical and computational studies to determine the effect of an applied mechanical strain on the dynamic behavior of heterogeneous polymer gels undergoing the oscillatory Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction. In these spatially heterogeneous gels, the catalyst for the reaction is localized in specific patches within the polymer network and the BZ reaction only occurs within these...
متن کاملOutput Consensus Control of Nonlinear Non-minimum Phase Multi-agent Systems Using Output Redefinition Method
This paper concerns the problem of output consensus in nonlinear non-minimum phase systems. The main contribution of the paper is to guarantee achieving consensus in the presence of unstable zero dynamics. To achieve this goal, an output redefinition method is proposed. The new outputs of agents are functions of original outputs and internal states and defined such that the dynamics of agents a...
