Tracking fixed-point dynamics in an electrochemical system using delayed-feedback control

We report numerical and experimental results indicating successful tracking of stabilized fixed points solutions in an electrochemical system. By applying a continuous delayed-feedback technique, periodic oscillations are suppressed via stabilization of a steady-state fixed point. Subsequently, using a simple continuation method involving an update term, this stabilized fixed point is tracked through the bifurcation diagram as a system parameter is slowly varied. Under the influence of this tracking protocol, inception of oscillatory dynamics is precluded over large parameter domains and through bifurcations.
