Experimental switchings in bistability domains induced by resonant perturbations

We show that a combination of a resonant perturbation which induces bistabi lity in the system with the targeting technique based on the action of a sh ort-lived pulse perturbation makes the nonfeedback control of nonlinear sys tems (not only in a chaotic state) more flexible and even competitive with OGY's method in the sense of fast switching between controlled orbits belon ging to coexisting attractors. For different initial states we present seve ral experimental and numerical examples of such a type of control, which do es not require feedback system.
