Abstract

The dynamic behavior of bidirectionally coupled Duffing-type circuits is numerically and experimentally investigated. Two related phenomena are explored such as anti-phase synchronization and inverse π-lag synchronization. Anti-phase synchronization is observed for the first time in coupled Duffing-type systems, while the inverse π-lag synchronization phenomenon in mutually coupled identical oscillators is a new type of synchronization. Inverse π-lag synchronization can be characterized by the vanishing of the sum of two relevant periodic signals. The first one is the signal of the first circuit x1and the second is the signal of the second circuit x2with a time lag τmin. This time lag is equal to T/2, where T is the period of x1and x2. The measurements and numerical computations suggest that these two synchronization phenomena are correlated with the symmetry under the transformation, x → -x, y → -y and t → t + T/2, which the Duffing equation exhibits.
