Details
Synchronization of oscillatory (bio)chemical reactions plays an important role in functioning of biological processes. Physiological condition is often achieved by an optimal level and structure of synchrony. When the synchronization breaks down, engineering techniques are needed to re-establish the structure. Closed- and open-loop techniques for synchronization engineering can be used with linear and nonlinear delayed feedbacks and phase selective entrainments. A framework for methodological design of the control allows adjusting phase difference between oscillator and generation of stable and itinerant clustering, desynchronization, and chimera states. Prof. Kiss will talk about recent advances on synchronization engineering that addresses the optimality of the control signals, leveraging heterogeneities to enhance synchronization characteristics, and design of emergent hypernetworks. Phase model machinery for collective behavior of oscillatory processes in discrete units proves to be an important tool for design of engineering techniques.
