“…Following its introduction by Landa & McClintock [23] and motivated by the aforementioned potential applications, VR has now been demonstrated and analysed in a diversity of model systems theoretically, numerically and experimentally, cutting across many fields such as neuroscience, plasma physics, laser physics, acoustics and engineering. Specifically, the VR phenomenon has been investigated in bistable systems [24,28–35], multistable systems [36,37], ratchet devices [38], excitable systems [39], quintic oscillators [40–44], coupled oscillators [25,45–47], overdamped systems [30], delayed dynamical systems [44,46,48–52], asymmetric Duffing oscillators [53], fractional order oscillators [32,42,54], neural models [39,50,55–61], oscillatory networks [46,55,58–60,62–64], biological nonlinear systems [49,61,64], parametrically excited systems [34,65–69], systems with nonlinear damping [37,70–72], and deformed potential [73], disordered systems [74], quantum systems [75,76], as well as harmonically trapped and roughed potentials [72,77]. More importantly, VR has been demonstrated in experimental realizations, especially in multistable systems, arrays of hard limiters, bistable vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers [28,29,33,78–81] and Chua circuits [82,83].…”
