Parametric resonance and the formation of dissipative structures in electrolyte solutions under the action of a periodic electric field

A mathematical model for the formation of dissipative structures (DSs) in e lectrolyte solutions under the action of an external periodic electric fiel d was considered. Based on an analysis of a linear system of equations, the conditions of parametric resonance resulting in DSs were determined. The e ffect was illustrated by numerical calculations for a modified "brusselator " system. It was shown that, such a resonance may produce DSs even if the s ystem is stable according to Turing.
