This Demonstration shows the dynamics of a forced Brusselator model. The Brusselator is an example of an autocatalytic chemical reaction. The model can represent a limit cycle, Andronov–Hopf bifurcation, and also chaotic behavior when a sinusoidal force acts on the system [1]. This force could be heat convection, microwave radiation, or some other force that varies sinusoidally with small intensity.
